Hello There,

Is this Possible to use v5.1.8 without updating it and without Error Message > Error Outdated Version

Because latest version didn't have Windows78 Installer then impossible to use thes new version

Vladimiry can you make a Standalone Version For Windows 7&8 that one will never expire please ?

The issue like this was rejected before, so this one goes the same way. Not sure, but @ask2018 might be able to give a hint of how to make it work for a limited period of time.

supermium-electron should have stable version in near future, but the testing build works fine for now.

If anyone needs to use ElectronMail on Win7/8 there are these options now.
Both tested with ElectronMail 5.2.0 and seems to be working just fine.
1.
Download latest Windows ElectronMail release, unpack it and delete everything with exception of "resources" folder.

2a
Download latest Electron 22 release (supports ends October 10, 2023)
For now it is https://github.com/electron/electron/releases/tag/v22.3.24

or

2b
Download latest supermium-electron release
For now it is https://github.com/win32ss/supermium-electron/releases/tag/v28-testing

3
Copy all files with exception of "resources" folder from Supermium-electron or Electron 22 to the same folder where you have "resources" folder from ElectronMail.

4
Rename electron.exe to ElectronMail.exe and now you can run latest ElectronMail on Win 7/8.`

For me thes trick helped alot

for Noobs people :

in step 2a When clicked in the link find >
electron-v22.3.24-win32-x64.zip

and extract all exept ressource folder in C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Local\Programs\ElectronMail

And rename Electron > ElectronMail
