Note that Microsoft feature support for Windows 7 ended in 2015, and that extended support, including security updates, ended January 2019. Using Windows 7 is risky, as security holes are no longer being patched. Mainstream support for Windows 8.1 ended in January of 2016. However, Microsoft will continue to offer security updates until June of 2023. However, Microsoft is not supporting Office 2019 or later on anything but Windows 10.
