My driver is from 2021, oen of the last ones for 7 and 8. RDR2 runs perfectly fine. DXVK, I tried today, no result. Looks like the game can be added to a full no-support list!

New News regarding Firefox:

- If you are on Win7/8.1 you can't download the Beta/Nightly installer anymore. If you visit the installers website there will be a notice, something similar to "Firefox is only supported on Win versions above 8.1". If you still press at download v115 Stable Offline installer will be downloaded instead

- The Beta/Nightly installers aren't blocked, they still download the latest version (117a1)

- 115 Beta release notes weren't mentioning the EOL of 7/8.1 - the stable version now does 

Have you tried changing the user agent or using a bypass?

No, I haven't tried that out yet. 

I also wanted to point out that the latest Nightly Installer no longer works on Windows 7/8.1. You get the same message like when you tried installing newer Firefox versions on XP/Vista. If you copy the latest Nightly from a Windows 10+ machine, it will still work. There are no implemented software restrictions (yet)

It never worked good to begin with, even with Win10, I don't know about you, I'm not gonna cry about that buggy game, sorry.

Yes, after June 2022 Win7 is no longer supported, but the versions released before that time work, albeit without updates.

Have you tried spoofing Windows 10 with VxKex? Maybe that could help make it work. Edit: Actually, disregard this. I forgot that VxKex is only for Windows 7. I wrongly thought you were running Windows 7. Sorry.

Firefox is Unshipping d3dcompiler_47.dll and Universal CRT DLLs

Will this hurt compatibility

I always delete it, and it works without it. Especially if you have DirectX redist installed.

MFCreateDXGIDeviceManager

Monster Hunter Rise wants MFCreateDXGIDeviceManager. which is Windows 8(1)+ only. 

When I try and launch, it says entry point MFCreateDXGIDeviceManager is missing in the dynamic link library MFPlat.DLL. Replaced, like they suggested, I now get a black screen. Ideas?

They have finally broken binary compatibility in Firefox nightly by using a new compiler and subsystem. Running the extracted firefox.exe just brings up an invalid application error now.

For the moment, the only thing to modify in order to make Firefox runnable again is the required subsystem version strings, which can be done using a tool like CFF Explorer.
This is also a sign they will probably start to implement Win10+ functions into the browser.

I also tested with the VxKex version spoofer and it doesn't work, so if you really need to run newer builds of Firefox, you will need to modify the binary by yourself.
