Hello,

Oxygen XML Editor 8.x was released before the Windows 7 was launched in October 2009 so it is not officially supported.
However it has been tested and it should install and run fine in Windows 7. It's just that eventual incompatibilities of 8.x with Windows 7 that could appear from subsequent operating system updates will not be resolved.

If you are going to use it in Windows 7 please install the latest Java SE JRE from Oracle(formerly Sun) from here:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/ ... index.html

And download and install the Windows distribution of Oxygen 8.2 that does NOT include the Java VM:

Adrian

Later Edit:
Make sure you download and install a 32-bit Java SE JRE.
