Thanks for this. You read my mind. I think the few remaining browser makers are too eager to not support OSes that are just a few years old. It is done under the guise of 'security' but executables using older APIs would work perfectly well on new OS versions.

You're welcome! If you use this, please consider sponsoring the developer if you can. I daily drive Chromium Legacy and I'm perpetually terrified its one very talented developer will abandon the project. As of this writing, the project only has two sponsors, one of which is me.

Working executable is not the target, a reasonably secure system is the target, and so, it doesn't make sense to support an EOL platform, as that's insecure by default. In fact, the browser explicitly not supporting it is a benefit for the user, as they now feel added pressure to use something up to date.
