Fred, is the new compiler option
[v] Use shared UCRT (Windows 10 and above)
only for use with the C-Backend, or does it also have an effect when compiling a program with the ASM-backend?

If enabled, will my compiled exe still run on Win 7, or does it require Win 10 and later?

Applications compiled in PB 6.2x, with option “Use shared UCRT”, work fine for me in Windows 7 x64.
In Windows 7, it was installed "VS 2015 - 2022 Redistributable"

So the exe with UCRT should run fine on Win 7 without the user installing anything?

No, from the sound of it it'll work fine if they install the MSVC++ 2015-2022 runtimes, needed by many modern apps.

Ah... oh well, I won't enable it then.

My main system is running stock Windows 7 x64 SP1. No updates, none, zero. It is working perfectly for my use. Why change something that's not broken ? And it is so fast to boot and shutdown !
My next system in a few years will be Linux Mint. Thankfully Purebasic works there as well.
