NOTE: Getting this to work on Windows 7/8/8.1 was not as simple as downgrading to Electron 22.3.27 (which is why we are on Electron 28 now), but rather, the etcher-sdk package. The last version that supports Win7/8/8.1 is 6.3.0, using Node 14 and Electron 12, used in Etcher 1.7.9

I have made a fork of etcher-sdk and updated dependencies and the version number to 6.4.1, and a fork of Etcher 1.7.9 with all the fixes that this fork has, as well as updating dependencies and Electron to 13.6.9. The version number was re-started at 1.0.0 to avoid confusion by going to "1.8.0", since there is already an Etcher 1.8.0. Anyway, this is in a new repo > https://github.com/Alex313031/etcher-ng-win7, and you can use builds there for a mostly up to date Etcher experience on old Windows versions. This version also supports 32 bit Windows, as well as old 32 Bit and 64 Bit Linux operating systems (as old as Debian 8 or Ubuntu 14.04). No MacOS builds will be provided, as the regular version here runs on 10.15 and above.
