No fim das contas, Firefox vai suportar Windows 7, 8 e 8.1 por mais tempo

Irgendwie erinnert mich das an die Verlängerung des Internet Explorers 6

For those who love MSN/Windows Live Messenger, it has been revived! This site has been around for awhile, but I thought I should mention it for those who don't know about it and also for those who are tired of modern messaging programs which are often inaccessible. Note that you must create a free account with them and cannot use an old hotmail address or whatever you used with Microsoft's version. This is the same software, but modified to work on their servers. For that reason, even if you have the original on your computer, you should install theirs. There is a way to patch an existing one, but why go through all the trouble? Escargot works on Windows, from XP through 11, and it is completely accessible with NVDA, minus the games, which never worked with screen readers anyway. There are IOS and Android versions, but I have no idea how well they work in general, let alone with VoiceOver or Talkback. If you wish to add me, I am dandylover1@escargot.chat. The site can be found here.

(Edited because I found a better article that doesn't use a summarised version via translation and also has more details.)
Apparently, I am not the only one who wants to return to an earlier version of Windows! These modified versions include all updates to the present day, which certainly saves a lot of time once they are installed.

Enthusiast Releases Up‑to‑Date ISOs for Windows 7 and Vista

This is the site of the man in question, since I couldn't find it on the above page.

For those who worry about security, , these two browsers are updated regularly. Both work with XP and 7. Supermium also allows you to connect to your Google account and is built off of Chrome. Serpent is updated weekly. In both cases, you must manually check on the websites for updates. Serpent is based off of Firefox, but it cannot connect to a Firefox account. It does, however, use its own servers. Both of these are also accessible with NVDA, whereas several other such browsers that work with older systems are not. You may need to search down the page for Serpent, though. Note that Icedove (like Thunderbird) is also accessible.

Here is a list of legacy programs that work with 7 and XP, though versions may differ i.e. not all may work with XP but all should work with 7. Note that some programs on the main page of this site still work on XP and 7, but since they never dropped support for those systems, there is no need for a legacy version. Among the ones I use in this category are Balabolka, Clamwin, Cook Timer, DFG and JKDefrag (only used on regular hard drives, not solid state), File Optimizer, Free Alarm Clock, HWiNFO, Jarte, KCleaner, MPCHC (Media Player Classic), MSS (Microsoft Safety Scanner), Opal (haven't tried on XP but works on 7), and Revo Uninstaller (not current/inaccessible with NVDA even on 11, must use version 1.49). Reddit for Blind (not on below site) also works on Windows 7 64-bit and Thunderbird 102 works on 7, all versions. I use it even on 11. Auto Hotkey 1 and 2 work on XP and 7.

If you use NVDA, note that, along with the latest version, those that work with XP and 7 (2017.3 and 2023.3, respectively) are available on their site. If you wish to install 7, it is important to have either talking Windows PE or a disk, usb stick (or iso if working on a virtual machine) with NVDA installed, since unlike 10 and 11, you cannot use Narrator during installation. I have never been able to install XP on my own, so unfortunately, I can't help you there.

Mozilla extended support for Firefox 115 ESR on Windows 7, 8, and 8.1 and macOS 10.12 – 10.14 until August. It was due to end support last month, and they may consider extending it again.

Firefox ESRs are old versions that continue getting security updates, and Firefox 115 was released in 2023. https://support.mozilla.org/kb/firefox-users-windows-7-8-and-81-moving-extended-support
