Hi John,
zmPortable 6.3.10 don't works on Windows 7/8.1.
In short:
1. I have installed Zoom Portable using the online installer;
2. I have launched the launcher 'zmPortable.exe'
3. the Zoom desktop symply do not works in any way:
4. I have looked for Windows 7 kernel error and I have found an answer inside Zoom Community:
Unfortunately the legacy version of Zoom Desktop works only until July 2025.
See this post on Zoom Community https://community.zoom.com/t5/Zoom-Meetings/windows-7-kernel32-error/m-p...
The 6.x.x branch of Zoom Desktop installers works ONLY with Windows 10 and Win 11.
The legacy version of Zoom Desktop for Windows 7 and 8.1 is 5.17.13 (42282) and can be found at:
• Zoom Desktop Download Center: https://zoom.us/download
• direct download 32 bit installer: https://zoom.us/client/5.17.13.42282/ZoomInstallerFull.exe
• direct download 64 bit installer: https://zoom.us/client/5.17.13.42282/ZoomInstallerFull.exe?archType=x64
I have looked inside PortableApps.com, Sourceforge.net, Internet Archive Wayback Machine but i haven't found the online installer for Zoom 5.7.x branch.
In any way, can You post the zmPortable 5.17.13 ?

Thanks
That is a lot of words to say Zoom 6.x is Windows 10/11 only. Zoom 5.x is available for Windows 7/8 and could be packaged as a zmPortableLegacy channel

It's up in the PA.c Platform's App Store as well as from the app homepage: https://portableapps.com/apps/internet/zmportable#download_details

Thanks very much for this build.
But..
the Legacy online installer is not available for download: link removed
Fixed the link on the page. It was right in the platform.
