The highest version of macOS admitting Encore is Mojave (10.14). This means it can’t be installed on any of the recent models (post 2019) of iMac at all. I keep an “old” Mac mini 2012 to run Encore, having access to it from my Mac Studio via Screen Sharing. It’s the best I could think of. 😉
> How do you have this set up?
It’s simple and easy: both Macs are connected to the same network (LAN) and I launch the Screen Sharing.app on the Mac Studio. That gives me direct and complete access to the good old Mojave Mac mini on which Encore runs…
I keep an old Mac mini running Encore 5.0.7. I’m using it over the Screen Sharing.app on my new Mac Studio and it’s quite correct so far. Of course, I’d love to see version 6 of Encore but it’s “to be coming” (as it has been for some time)…
Quand va sortir Encore 6 ?
Nous sommes assez nombreux ici à nous poser la même question. Et cela depuis trois ans, sans beaucoup d’avancées, si ce n’est la petite mélodie sur la page d’accueil du site en fin d’année 2024 que Don Williams avait créée avec sa version de travail et ce message (dernière mise à jour en mai 2025). Pour le reste, on ne peut que conseiller d’être patient. La version 5 reste opérationnelle, si on en dispose…
Mojave is a very good and safe version to install on an Intel Mac and run Encore 5. But you can’t install Mojave on a M1 Mac, if that is what you have in mind. On the recent Macs, with Silicon chips, there is no way to do that…
> I’ll be happy if Encore5 runs on Catalina or later OS
Encore 5 is dead. It doesn’t (and won’t) run on Catalina or later OS. Encore 6 will (and we are all in the wait)!
Could you be a bit more specific? If you intend to upgrade Encore, can you let us know which version you’re trying to upgrade, which platform is involved (Windows? Mac?)…
Be aware that, as of now, there has been no upgrades for years, we’re all expecting the forthcoming version 6 of Encore, which is now due to be available “this summer” (see the home page). 😉
It might as well be a serial number for enCORE Healthcare software…
You should read the “About Us” page of the site. You’ll understand that the future Encore 6 will be kind of built from scratch, nearly nothing having been transferred from the previous owners of the brand. We’re all hoping for a release of Encore 6, but only Don Williams knows when that will be (if he does). As to the price, well, we’ll see…
Keep your fingers crossed!The “most recent” version of macOS that will run Encore 5 is Mojave (macOS 10.14.6). Encore 5 runs quite fine in such a case (I’m still having and old Mac mini running just for that purpose next to my Mac Studio). But as to Word and Excel, you can’t run a version higher than 16.54 (issued octobre 2021) which can be activated with a Microsoft 365 licence, an Office 2021 or an Office 2019 licence.
Running a virtual system can be an option, but the recent Macs with a Silicon processor won’t be able to run Mojave, even in a virtual machine. So, it’s a difficult compromise ahead. Think that if (if!) Encore 6 is out next month (but who knows?), things will be quite different.
