I've been using Session desktop on Win7 quite satisfactorily
for a while now. Update notices come along and prompt you to
accept them or opt for "Later". The lastest operating version
for me was 1.11.0.
An update notice arrived yesterday. I accepted it. 1.11.2
failed. Error message was "DiscardVirtualMemory could not be
located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll"
Well.. apparently, Win7 does not support DiscardVirtualMemory.
There was no clue of this at the Session blog.
So.. just a heads up to any other Win7 users out there,
apparently Win7 support has ended at 1.11.0.
I was able to re-install Session 1.11.0 from the releases
available on the Github development site.
The only annoying thing is that Session now prompts for the
upgrade every few minutes.
