Hy,

I tried running 1.6.0 (latest) on Win7 x64 but it won't run. The procedure entry point "DiscardVirtualMemory" could not be located "KERNEL32.dll" popped up. Downgraded to the initial release (1.0.2.0) , Thank God, it ran successfully.

Can u please tell me, until which version will/should successfully run on Windows 7 before I get this error.

BTW, Wonderful, simple, useable tool. 👍

Thanks

From looking at when Electron was updated to a version incompatible with Windows 7, either 1.3.2 or 1.3.3-beta should work.

That's a bummer 😕. It might be possible to fork Heynote and change the Electron version dependency to 22. I don't believe Heynote uses any Electron API that's been added in a later version (though I'm not 100% sure about that).
