64bit Service Pack 1


But just seen this in the release notes for v4.2.1

https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/blob/master/RELEASE-NOTES



"- Windows: we are dropping support for Windows 7. (#7728)
     Version 4.2.0 already unintentionally broke compatibility with
     Win7 and there is no easy way to restore and maintain support.
     Existing users can keep using version 4.1.5 for now, but should
     consider upgrading or changing their OS.
     Win8.1 still works but only Win10 is regularly tested."



so i'm screwed then, and could lose access to my wallet ?



also, I see this reference in v4.2.0 change notes....

"* The minimum python version was increased to 3.8 (#7661)"

i'm guessing the python39.dll wasn't installed with 4.2.0 ?




this is not good, how do i backup my wallet so i can access it form something else should 4.1.5 become unusable ?


and does anyone have any recommendations for something else i can use for windows 7 ?
