My 2009 Win-7 Pro x64 just keeps going and going, and doing what I tell it to do.

“My 2009 Win-7 Pro x64 just keeps going and going, and doing what I tell it to do.”

That’s me too. Win 7 from circa 2009

Unfortunately I put on Brave and Brave won’t upgrade without error. Brave overloads machine within a day or two and requires to be closed.

I put on Waterfox and that has a time bomb in it too. A couple of days and machine is dead meat.

Same here, plus I got Linux Mint installed. I use Windows 10 VERY LITTLE, and I will not let my computer incur anymore updates to the O/S.

I hope you don't use it for anything more than playing Solitaire. You haven't had a security patch since January 14, 2020 unless you paid for the extended vulnerability service.
