windows78 branch future #615
Comments
Thank you for reply @vladimiry. |
Just an update on this issue with possible future solution. |
I'm not ready to support unsupported systems, like Win 7. So closing as won't fix. |
I understand and thank you for clear statement. That means I'll need to try fix it somehow on my own when the time will come. Keep up the good work on this project. |
If anyone needs to use ElectronMail on Win7/8 there are these options now. 2a or 2b 3 4 |
Just an update for anybody who wants to use ElectronMail on Win7. |
Another update for people still running ElectronMail on Win7. Current version of VxKex doesn't work anymore with ElectronMail 5.2.3 and there is atm unknown status of Extended Kernel updates. Also supermium-electron is not yet updated to Electron version needed for running current version of ElectronMail. But here is solution for Windows 7 users. |
I'd like to discuss here future of Windows 7/8 branch and post related info about possible future solutions. Electron 22 will receive security updates until October 10, 2023 - https://www.electronjs.org/blog/electron-22-0
The Electron team will continue to backport any security fixes that are part of this program to Electron 22 until October 10, 2023.
For now the only reason why Electron 23+ is not compatible with Win 7/8/8.1 systems should be this:
https://github.com/electron/electron/releases/tag/v23.0.0
Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 8.1 are not supported anymore, as Chromium 110 dropped support.
And as we have here first fork of Chromium for legacy systems, I thought it is good time to start the discussion here about ElectronMail future for legacy systems.
https://github.com/win32ss/supermium
The aim of Supermium is to provide the latest Chromium features, support for rendering the web and security patches to users of Windows Vista (with extended kernel), Windows 7 and Windows 8.x.
