Hi All,
Can anyone confirm if Sql Server native Client 11 is compatible with Win 11 Os or not?
If not, what is/are the alternative shared by Microsoft for the same.
We are currently using Sql Server native Client in Win 10 to connect to Azure SQL DB.
Hi @Abhilash Swain ,
Any update for this thread? Did the replies from Erland and AlbertoMorillo could help you? If an answer is helpful, please "Accept answer" or "Up-Vote" for the same which might be beneficial to other community members reading this thread.
And If you have further questions or issues please let us know.
Microsoft ODBC 18 driver for SQL Server indeed supports Windows 11, see here.
The link you gave is the for the OLE DB driver, which is not for ODBC, but, well, OLE DB. The current version number for the OLE DB driver is 19.0. But ODBC and OLE DB are not interchangeable by any means.
@Erland Sommarskog please make this comment an answer so the OP can easily see.
Done.
SQL Server Native Client has been deprecated as noted here. Here you will find the operating systems supported.
Please use OLEDB drivers instead or the these versions of Microsoft ODBC drivers for SQL Server that are supported for Windows 11.
Hi Alberto,
Thanks for the details. I can see there is an option for SNAC13 snac-lifecycle-explained.
The drivers mentioned there are not supporting Win 11 as per system requirement mentioned.
Or the ODBC 18 driver if you are using the ODBC part of SNAC.
Thanks @Erland Sommarskog Erland for helping me on this one. Maybe the ODBC 18 driver is supported on Windows 11 but it seems the system requirements have not been updated accordingly. Take a look here.
