Steam no longer supports Windows 7, 8, and 8.1::Customers sticking to the good-old (and dead) Windows 7 now have one more reason to ditch the operating system: as of January 1, 2024, Steam no longer supports Windows 7, 8, and 8.1.

You purchased the right to install games from Steam knowing you need it to install and play the games,

Actually I did not know that. It pisses me off that I bought Axis and Allies Online on Steam instead of GOG one week before it became unplayable on Steam on my Windows 7 system. I will ALWAYS check GOG from now on.

You agreed to a TOS. Not reading it was your fault. I'll admit that extremely long TOSes are kind of a dark pattern, but you did agree to them.
