Since latest Rust 1.78.0 drops support Windows 7 support.Seehttps://blog.rust-lang.org/2024/02/26/Windows-7.htmlWe pin Rust to 1.77.2 for the following Windows targets:- x86_64-pc-windows-msvc- i686-pc-windows-msvc- x86_64-pc-windows-gnuaarch64-pc-windows-msvc (a.k.a. Windows ARM64) will continue using thelatest stable Rust available.NOTES:Microsoft stopped support for Windows 7 (also for extended users in2023). But at the moment we don't know how long we should keepsupporting this unmaintained platform. However, keep in mind that wecould reconsider bumping up the MSRV in future SWS versions whenconvenient, advising users accordingly.Seehttps://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/lifecycle/products/windows-7

Microsoft stopped support for Windows 7 in 2020 (2023 for extended users).
