Isn't hyper-V just give a Linux CLI?
I am guessing most folks prefer Chirp in a GUI environment.

Or you can take the opportunity to just run Linux in the VM - by the way 
Windows 10 and Windows 7 include Hyper-V, as an alternative to running VMware.


As always, there are many ways to do almost anything with computers.

  What you can do is to install VmWare, and download windows 10, and authorize 
windows 10 with your windows 7  key, and when you  want to launch Chirp, first 
launch windows 10 in a Hypervisor like VmWare, and install Chirp there.
  I prefer 7 too, so I did the opposite, installed 10 as the host, then put 7 
in VmWare as the guest OS, and use 7 for just about everything, and if I have 
to use 10, I toggle out of 7 and use 10.

  Tony, you are correct although just because Microsoft doesn't support Windows 
7 doesn't mean a program can't still work on Windows 7. there are a lot of hams 
I know that are still using Win-7 like I am and it runs very stable for all my 
applications except Chirp-Next. So now I have to use the older version of Chirp 
and am forced to get a newer machine with Windows 10 or 11 just to use the Next 
version of Chirp. Then I have to reinstall all the other programs onto the new 
machine. We hams are cheap and/or live on a fixed income. Look at the majority 
of hams. I do like the fact there is a new version of Chirp, I just wish I 
could use it on my machine. i was even tempted to send in a donation until I 
found out I couldn't use it. Like I said, I do wish it would have been more 
apparent that the new next version of Chirp will not run on Win-7.

    To be more accurate, it is made for Linux, Mac OS-X and Windows.
    Microsoft no longer support Windows 7.

      I would think it would be good to make it clear this "next" version of 
      Chirp is made for Windows 10 and doesn't work on Windows 7.
