i am incredibly confused by what you mean, Microsoft's website clearly states the extended end of supoort for 7 was jan 2020 as stated here https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/lifecycle/products/windows-7, and besides, the marketshare for windows 7 was still growing in 2012

by any chance, do you mean a push over to windows 7 from something like xp? or are you talking about a push from 7 to 8, which never really happened as all the focus was on the impending 2014 windows xp end of support date

windows 7 reached extended eol in 2020, for security updates only, i believe that's what they were talking about

glad that this will be patched out in most phones because android is like windows/linux and can be patched indepenently by the os develop- oh wait nope its all down to manufacturers that only give 3 years of support leaving many phones vulnerable.... sighhhhhhh

what we really need on phones and by extension arm devices is a unified bootloader, something akin to a bios or uefi (which btw already exists on arm but manufacturers are choosing to not go with it for some reason)

try using pcem or other kinds of virtualisation

cant you just run the installer with wine which is like 2000% easier?
