<p>Older Windows versions do not have support for reading the latest UDF versions.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:5" href="#fn:5"><sup>5</sup></a> If users create DVD/CDs in Windows Vista using UDF 2.50, these may not be readable on other systems, including Windows XP and older (pre-Mac OS 10.5) Apple systems unless a third-party UDF reader driver is installed. To ensure compatibility of disks created on Windows Vista, UDF 2.01 or lower should be selected.
