Steam no longer supports Windows 7, 8, and 8.1::Customers sticking to the good-old (and dead) Windows 7 now have one more reason to ditch the operating system: as of January 1, 2024, Steam no longer supports Windows 7, 8, and 8.1.

The OS is over 10 years old. No one in Linux land gets that level of support either.

I don't want any "support" from Steam. All I want is for Steam to not actively block me from running my purchased games on my computer.

Yes you are asking for support. Even if you don't understand that.

Nope. Just asking that they remove their DRM before they abandon Windows 7.
