will there be an update to the Lite Edition for Windows user?

As nowadays the 19.4 Pro has been released with the Lite version for Windows users still being the 18.1 released Sept. 2018 and any newer Lite version only being available for Linux - I am concerned ...

Hi,

ok, there will be some updates to the standard version (as Pro does not support all families this sounds reasonable). Nevertheless, the standard Edition still is some bucks for a one-year License :-| and might require to run Linux to be up to date...

Thus, the lite was always a good choice for low-budget FPGA developments like Cyclone and MAX10 with standard computer installations running also Office etc. (mainly Windows, I suppose).

Thank you for your support, it's up to Intel how to rate windows users ;-)
