Hello everyone. After updating to version 1.15.8 (WoW Classic) on Windows 7, I received a warning message about the game’s imminent end of support on this operating system. Is there any information on when (in which patch, on what date, etc.) support for the game on Windows 7 is planned to be removed? I’d love to hear from the developers or anyone else who knows.
PS: A request to everyone: please refrain from writing generic messages about upgrading to Windows 10, the end of Windows 7 support, and other such “your system isn’t secure!” messages. If people are running Windows 7, that’s the way it should be! My computer is from 2010, and I’m perfectly happy with it! Please only respond to the topic or to Windows 7 support.
Not yet. It may end anytime.
Windows 7 support ended around 2023 at most I believe, with the 32 bit retiring in 2018 too.
For any official messages about this you’ll have to keep an eye out on the official Blizzard blog. Even when it’s outdated it can still run, likely, just with very poor performance.
