7.0 did run on these operating systems, and is
available here.
There may be other limitations we are not yet
aware of. We do not do comprehensive testing on
these operating systems any longer. Version 7.0
is likely to be the final version still capable
of running on Windows 95 and NT 4.0. According
to the lead developer, ThumbsPlus is no longer
compatible with NT4.
