> This hotfix addresses Windows 7 start up issues

It is crazy that Larian are supporting Windows 7, given that it is EOL.

Than again, they're supporting OSX and Linux. According to the Steam hardware survey, which is a sufficient statistical analog for market share for gamers, there are more users running Windows 7 than OSX and Linux combined so I guess it does make sense.

At some point though they really should leave Win 7 in the past, it is likely why they support DirectX 11 instead of 12. Which means new DirectX 12 Ultimate features won't be on the table, for now.
