Note: * AR# 69908: 2017.1...3 - Vivado does not launch with Windows 10 Fall Creators Update
** AR#70146: QSPI flash programming now requires that you specify an FSBL, AR#70548: Zynq-7000 - QSPI programming in QSPI-boot mode -Trenz Electronic will provide special FSBL on 2017.4 an newer reference design.
*** Incompatibility of board files for ZynqMP with eMMC activated between 2021.2 and 2021.2.1 patch, see AMD Forum Request
**** Since 2021.2, AMD add Versal to Vivado as default installation. In case Versal is not used, Vivado installation size can be reduced around 40GB, when this folder will be deleted: C:\xilinx\Vivado\2021.2\data\parts\xilinx\devint\vault
***** With 2023.2 AMD changed Vitis to Vitis Unified IDE and renamed older IDE to Vitis Classic IDE. The Vitis Classic IDE will still be delivered with 23.2 but will probably be discontinued in the longer term.
