Microsoft is ending mainstream support for Windows 7 on January 14th, 2020. This means that after this date updates to fix security issues will not generally be available and so machines running Windows 7 will be more vulnerable to security risks and viruses.

We understand that many users will choose to continue using Windows 7 after this date, with some organisations opting to purchase extended support. We will therefore ensure that XJTAG continues to work on Windows 7 for the time being. However, due to Windows 7 not being in mainstream support, our products will not receive the same level of testing as they do for Windows 10 and we would encourage our users to upgrade to Windows 10 when possible.

At some point in the future, we may need to end Windows 7 support when one of the libraries or frameworks that we depend on chooses to end support for Windows 7, but we will communicate this well in advance of it occurring.
