2)    For information on Windows® 11 support, refer to Windows 11 support.  
3)   As an exception, dSPACE Release 2025-A does not support MATLAB® R2025a. Due to the delayed release schedule for MATLAB R2025a, it was not possible to qualify the dSPACE software products for the new MATLAB release within the planned timeline of the dSPACE Release. Support for MATLAB R2025a is now planned with dSPACE Release 2025-B.
