UPDATED ON: 2026-10-05 v26.2.6 is working by means of hack below using [latest Python version] , so last v26.2.7 will surely work in a similar way, v26.8.x branch is not working! Previously, we already did this with [Windows 7 and LibreOffice version 25.8] . And now, it is time to repeat the above-mentioned pattern with LibreOffice 26. Windows 7 cannot handle the 2026 version of the software, no matter how hard I tried.

UPDATED ON: 2026-10-06 v25.8.3 is running fine [Python 3.11.4] v25.8.7 Works but with an effort v26.2.0 Not working. However, this is [possible] in Windows 8.1 Frankly speaking, initially I considered droping a blip note that looks like this one: [LibreOffice 25.8 Is No Longer Welcoming Windows 7 Users] but then I thought: "What the heck? Why don't i opt to create something genuinely beneficial for the Windows 7 community instead of "competing" with the dumb vibe pseudo "coders" at my workplace".
