Hmm, but how do you check what fits to the different Windows systems? For example last weekend I discovered that the FindProc NSIS plugin that normally detects that no LyX.exe is already running is working fine on Windows 7 and older Win 10 but not on the latest Win 10. The plugin was not compiled using MSVC and I don't know if one can rely on GCC that programs compiled with it will run also on latest and future Win 10 versions other than running LyX under Win 10. (Then one can directly compile LyX under Windows.) You see why I insist that proper Windows support is only possible if the whole process, compilation, installer building and testing the installation is run on different Win systems. regards Uwe
