Already on v7?​

Most customers are here. Point releases install over the top, and clients update their plugins automatically:

→ Upgrading ScrewDrivers v7 Pro/Enterprise to a Newer Release

License server compatibility

ScrewDrivers 7.9.6 and later require Tricerat License Server v6.0.7.0 or later. Upgrade the license server first — the latest version is backward compatible with every v6 and v7 release.

Coming from v6?​

ScrewDrivers v6, Simplify Printing v6, and Simplify Suite v6 reached end of life on December 31, 2025 — plan the migration now if you haven't:

→ Upgrading to ScrewDrivers v7 Pro/Enterprise Edition

New to what changed between the versions? What Changed in ScrewDrivers v7 maps every v6 name, installer, and requirement to its v7 equivalent.

Just the license server?​

→ Upgrading Your License Server — in-place upgrade steps, activation code recovery, and version compatibility.
