But recent versions of pgAdmin *have* been running on Windows 7. Over the years I've religiously updated throughout v4, v5 and v6 (up until v6.2) and it's been running perfectly fine up until I upgraded from v6.2 -> 6.4 yesterday.
And I've tried reinstalling v6.2, but I'm now getting the same error. So clearly it's just a configuration issue or compatibility issue with some other component (e.g., python 3.8) because it was able to run yesterday. But looking back through my email history, I see I did have a problem updating to v5.0, that Dave Page kindly resolved. I don't know if what I'm now experiencing is the same issue, but is there a similar work around, given that v6.2 was working perfectly fine yesterday? I'd be happy to freeze at v6.2, if that's really the last version, but please don't make me go back to v4.30!

So, we need to think about how long we'll support Windows 7. Sooner or later we will have to update Python... :-( Cheers, Dave On Thu, Jan 20, 2022 at 1:32 PM Fahar Abbas <fahar.ab...@enterprisedb.com> wrote: > Hi Dave Caughey! > > We have dropped the Windows 7 and Windows 2008R2 64 bit support.
