Hi, I use your project in my small project XCI Organizer (and XCI Explorer) for extracting data from NSP files smaller than 10 MB. A few users are saying that it doesn't work in Windows 7. Any idea what could be triggering that? Thanks.
EDIT: I'm not using it anymore, but thought I'd let you know about the compatibility issues.

Thanks this is probably due to building with visual studio targeting windows 10 only.

Whoops, I think you're right. (Haven't tested anything though)

(from https://poweruser.blog/visual-studio-2017-compile-against-older-visual-c-c-runtimes-372519fe1400)

Microsoft has moved to a new Universal C runtime with Visual Studio 2015. The promise is, that there won’t be any new, incompatible Visual C runtimes anymore for each Visual Studio product generation. Builds for this new UCRT don’t depend on a specific vcredist anymore, but a new runtime. This runtime is part of

  • Windows 10 (starting with the first version/edition) and Windows Server 2016
  • the Windows update KB2999226 for any older Windows version
  • vcredist 2015 and 2017, which contains the above Windows update
