“you will run into many other issues because Win7 is unsupported.”
So “they” warned me back in 2020. For me, that only helped things. No more pushing through updates, as every update before that seemed to make matters worse.
I recall only one instance where having Windows 7 created an issue. I absolutely could not do what I needed to do. I’m sure that will be the case more often as time passes; we shall see. Hubby has 10 on his computers, and he’s forever having problems.
I can relate to this. Windows Update has been a motivating factor for some in ditching Windows permanently.
