The 1.78 release bumps the minimum supported Windows version to Windows
10; so we bump our major version to indicate the breaking change, and,
~1.5 years after the first public release, semi-offcially declare
stability given some level of battle testing.
As a point of reference, Microsoft support for Windows 8 ended on
January 12, 2016, and support for Windows 8.1 ended on
January 10, 2023; so
ptex
likely only ever could have had Windows 8.1users.
