V6, Win 7 Portable

Which claims it needs win10.
What is the last version that will run on Win7?
The Wiki says Calibre will run on Vista on up, but I can't install anything higher than V5.44.

Calibre 6 needs 64-bit Windows and it needs a late enough version of Windows 10. It does not work with early versions of Windows 10.

It was a decision by the maintainers of Qt not to support Windows earlier then a late version of Windows 10.
