As PEP 11 states, it is the extended support time-frame that is of interest. > For example, which Python version still support Windows 7?

But Python still has a Windows 7 SP1 buildbot > for Python 3.8: https://buildbot.python.org/all/#/builders/60 Python 3.8.0 was release when Windows 7 SP1 was within the extended support time-frame. Therefore, Win7 is supported (and tested) until 3.8 reaches EOL. > What is the minimum Windows supported by Python 3.10? >From the link listed in PEP 11, Windows 8.1 does not leave extended support until Jan 10, 2023. So it seems that 3.10 and 3.11 will need to support Windows 8.1. -- Jeremy Kloth _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list -- python-dev@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-dev-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-dev.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-dev@python.org/message/NFPSZD44DLFJS7CFGT2SVX3CSK7H5VRJ/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
