Thanks, I have installed a workaround for this.

I'm not sure what you are suggesting here. That we drop support for all
but the most recent version of Windows, that we refuse to add new
features to Emacs unless they are supported by all versions of Windows,
or that we offer a separate download for every version of Windows with
the appropriate features enabled? I don't think any of these is a very
good solution for users compared with making the decision at runtime.
