[Framers] FrameMaker 7.2 Crashes

[Fred Ridder]

It's not entirely correct that Microsoft stopped issuing security patches for Windows XP three years ago. That's when extended support officially ended, but there have been at least two critical security updates released since then -- one in the first year after the official end of support, and one in the last week to address the WannaCry/WannaCrypt ransomware attack.

It should not have problems if you install it on a real XP computer,
except that XP is highly insecure since Microsoft stopped issuing
security updates three years ago.

Windows XP mode works fine for me to run old software under 64-bit Windows 7.
