Why would they even spend time doing this, doesn't windows take care of compatibility?
- New window versions try to be compatible with old versions. The older ones can't become compatible with the newer ones
  
  It was already compatible though.
  Edit: nevermind. It's because Windows stopped supporting those versions, and with no new security updates devs won't support them either.
