FiveM Windows 8.1 & 7 Support

Why doesn’t FiveM support Windows 7 & 8?

I’ve seen nothing about Windows 8 not being supported, but Windows 7 isn’t supported because of a bug that exists that apparently won’t be fixed by Microsoft:

Windows 7 support dropped

Due to a bug in Windows 7 that Microsoft is unwilling to fix, conflicting with our loader system, support for Windows 7 on FiveM has officially been dropped. https://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/details/2281687/setdefaultdlldirectories-results-in-exception-during-opening-a-winform-on-win7 We apologize for the inconvenience, and recommend upgrading to Windows 8.1 or Windows 10, instead.
