Win 7?

Open pbpb opened this issue 3 years ago • 5 comments

Is this supposed to work for win 7? Because it sure don't for me. Changing dotnet publish -r win10-x64 -c Release --self-contained .\DevComrade to dotnet publish -r win7-x64 -c Release --self-contained .\DevComrade doesn't seem to fix it.

Installer for .NET SDK claims to have worked without errors.

Thanks.

I've never tested or made any other efforts for it to work on Win7. In theory it should work, I don't think I use anything Win10 specific. Try dotnet publish -c Release ..\DevComrade and see if it makes any difference.

From .\Postprintum\devcomrade\Package folder:

dotnet publish -c Release ..\DevComrade
start ..\DevComrade\bin\Release\net6.0-windows\publish\DevComrade.exe 

Note this will be using the shared installation of .NET 6 runtime.

Thanks. That doesn't work, either, though leads to fewer errors.

It seems that maybe .NET wants some win 7 specific features that don't actually exist in .NET 6? (Probably MS made no effort to support win 7 in NET 6, I guess.)

I wonder if an executable built under win 10 would run in win 7. Not near my win 10 machine right now.

Here are the errors: ("..." replacing my long path)

Regardless, thanks for the help, and the code.

No worries, and I'm sorry I don't have time to invest into Win7 support. As a matter of fact, I don't have much time for this project at all right now :(

Thanks anyway. I know how it is about time. AT the beginning it seems like there's plenty of time, later, not so much.

If I find a way to make it work on win 7, I'll post back.

Thanks! Feel free to open a PR.

I don't collect any kind of telemetry, but judging from the GitHub repo insights, I think, very few people actually use this tool. So I usually only add/fix something if I selfishly need it myself 🙂
