Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/sigoden/dufs/issues/616
Specific Demand
Please add support for Windows 7.
Implement Suggestion
Consider updating compatibility or dependencies to allow DUFS to run on Windows 7 systems.

Hello, is it difficult for this to support Windows 7? We have employees using Windows 7 here. I'm working on a requirement that uses the service you wrote. It's very easy to use and fast, but it can't run on Windows 7!

Although it can't be solved, I'm still very grateful for the tools you provided! Because its performance is indeed very good, we temporarily take it as an alternative option.

If you have a Windows 10 or newer device, you could try compiling with the nightly toolchain using the following command:
Please be aware that
x86_64-win7-windows-msvcis a Tier 3 target, which means it is not officially supported by the Rust team and may not be guaranteed to work.Additionally, using a nightly toolchain comes with its own risks, as it can be unstable and introduce breaking changes at any time.

Ok, thank you. I have already written an http file transfer service using python and I am already using it. When I have time later, I'll do some research. dufs transmission is still faster than what I wrote in Python.

I've created a fork that automatically builds binary files from the latest commits and publishes them to GitHub Releases. This includes support for Windows 7. If you're interested, you can give it a try. You can find the releases here: https://github.com/cppbear/dufs-automated/releases
