I created a simple gui application with walk,it works fine on windows 10.I make a copy to windows xp virtual machine and run it ,the program does not pop up and exit immediately.Does walk support develop gui application for windows xp?

It used to work some time ago, but I don't see the point in putting in the extra effort to support it indefinitely. BTW, I'm not even sure if walk still works on Vista.

I encounter the program crash on windows xp too, maybe following patch can help:

Why are people using windows XP? Especially after wannacry?

The software users which I serve are still using windows xp platform.

Why don't they upgrade to a newer Windows version?

Confirmed that MainWindow works properly on Vista.

I got the same problem when I send a Walk GUI exe to my customer. At first I saw the style of "Walk", yes，winform! But noooot work on Win XP! Why a winform style UI need Win7 or higher, And I cannot see any notice on README! How can I fix it? ———————————————————————————————————————————— PS: SO MANY SO MANY PC RUN WITH WIN XP ! MAYBE 10YEARS THEY HAVE NOT CHANGED! AND AFTER! BCS THEY NOT BELONG TO A PERSON!
