Recently I took an unprecedented step and sent out an email encouraging all my active software users to update their Windows operating system and NET to 4.7
So today, this entry, will be about Windows update and .NET 4.7.
Now Windows 2000 and XP are ancient operating systems and I trying to ensure my apps run on many versions of Windows since 2013.
However, it is impeding progress as some of the latest improvements are available in Windows 10 Creator Edition as the default .NET 4.7 is installed.
These improvements are for very high definition monitors. Generally most laptops or desktops are using 120 dpi (dots per inch), the very high end laptops sport 200-300 dpi screens.
For example, .NET Framework 4.7 is supported on the following Windows versions:
In addition, miscreants or opportunists are targeting users who do not patch their Windows operating systems to introduce malware or ransomware. To avoid falling prey to these low life forms, please patch your Windows operating system using WiFI links and stay alert.
FAQ

What is so great about .NET 4.7 frameworks on Windows 10 Creator Edition?
There are some improvements for ultra high definition monitors e.g 3200x2048 at 300 dpi as many user interface elements will be drawn correctly.
Do you continue to support Windows XP or Windows 2000 platform?
Honestly I have not see any users on XP or Windows 2000 since 2015. It will be on 'best effort' basis.
