For security, you can Micropatch it.
I tried W7 recently and it was even better, more polished than I remembered. USB3 drivers could be an issue though. Depends on the motherboard.
- HWR_14 5y agoWhat's Micropatch?
- p1peridine 5y agoCheck out 0patch by ACROS Security. They do support Windows 7. > A patch (also called a micropatch) is a small package with a few code instructions that replace a vulnerable section of code in a running application. A patch therefore fixes a vulnerability. > A licensed patch can get applied to a module(usually, a DLL–dynamic-link library) inside a running process in order to eliminate a vulnerability in that process. This means that the vulnerable code section in the module inside the process is replaced with corrected code from the patch. > 0patch does not change executable files on the file system. It only modifies code in memory of running processes, which allows it to easily and quickly apply and remove patches without even relaunching applications, much less restarting your computer. https://0patch.com/ https://0patch.com/ User Manual: https://0patch.com/files/0patch_Agent_User_Manual_21.05.05.10500.pdf https://0patch.com/files/0patch_Agent_User_Manual_21.05.05.1...
