Hello @sergeevabc Please build it youself in Windows 7.
@likexian, what do you mean “build it yourself”? I am a user, who is trained in another field, not a developer. This is your world, where I can only send signals.
Windows 7 is end of life by MicroSoft, and we don't have plan to support it any more.
@likexian Microsoft is a commercial company, so its decisions are dictated by profit. If the support does not promise profit, it will be canceled. It says nothing about the tool. A good hammer continues to hammer regardless of whether the warranty has expired. Microsoft calls it obsolete so that people get scared and run to spend money, and not because there is something revolutionary new in the new OSes (like 64-bit, NTFS instead of FAT32, and the ability to work with more than 4 GB RAM). This trick of capitalism is called planned obsolescence. But there are many users, especially outside relatively well-off places, who can't upgrade or don't care about support, because Windows 7 works properly without it. And I doubt there are any features in your Whois program that require a new OS — after all it's a simple network exchange, so it's a pity that you give up so easily and turn a blind eye to people’s pain.
Dear @likexian, @golang developers betrayed Windows 7 users and no longer allow compiling binaries for this OS via the new version of Go. Please, consider using the previous version.
