v1.42.1

1.42.1 - 2023-11-23

Since we needed to upgrade electron this version drops support for windows 7, 8 and 8.1
https://www.electronjs.org/blog/windows-7-to-8-1-deprecation-notice
If you are using DC on these platforms you have the following options:

Keep using 1.40.4

update windows to 10 or 11

switch to linux (or dual boot it)

contact [email protected] if you have money and want to sponsor the development of a special legacy build of deltachat desktop 1.42 for windows 7/8/8.1.
