    Hi haganezuka 

     

    Edge version 109 is the final-release for Windows 7 and 8.1, sorry.

     

    The only major-browser that now still supports both Windows 7 and 8.1 is Mozilla Firefox, specifically their "ESR" (Extended Support Release) edition.

     

    Please go to the web-link below to download it:
    https://www.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/all/#product-desktop-esr 

     

    And ensure on that page you set the options as follows:

     

    Which browser would you like to download?

    Firefox Extended Support Release

     

    Which version would you like?

    115.1.0esr

     

    Select your preferred installer

    Windows 64-bit

     

    Select your preferred language

    (choose which language you personally would prefer the browser to use)

     

    NOTE: if after downloading the setup installer file you try to use it and it does not work, then you likely have a 32-bit version of Windows 7 on your PC, which cannot run 64-bit apps.  Simply go back to the website I stated above, but change the "Select your preferred installer" dropdown to "Windows 32-bit"
