Screenshot of Sopwith, an example of abandonwareAbandonware is computer software which is no longer being sold or supported by its copyright holder. Sometimes, it is used as a blanket category for any software over a certain age, usually five years.
The term has no legal meaning. This means that labeling any kind of software 'abandonware' does not make it legal to distribute it. Unless the author puts the software in the public domain, any and all abandonware remains covered under copyright law until its copyright term expires.
Alternatively, the term is also used for software which is still available, but on which further support and development have been intentionally discontinued.
