Support for Windows 8.1 #172

Hello,

I really liked what you build, no telemetry and hassle with all security patches. Would love to make it my permanent browser. Would it be possible to add support for Windows 8.1 ?

Kind regards

@helmutrocco13

Thanks bud but apparently it's based on v115 ESR and I'm only interested in latest releases. If I had to use 115, I would have used the Librewolf version that works on Windows 8.1

Wish this newer versions could support Windows 8.1, let's wait for the dev.

From https://github.com/Alex313031/Mercury-Win7/issues/7#issuecomment-1982275799:

I will occasionally push out a beta build of Mercury for Windows 7 based on newer Firefox, but the stable releases will continue to be based on ESR 115 until October.
