[General Question] Support for BLE under Win7

[lukas681]

As far as I know MS has not implemented any support for BLE under Windows 7. Is there any workaround for that? (Upgrading to Win8/10... hehe, funny you are...) My workstation has not been upgraded to win10 according to some corporate restrictions, yet.

Possible solutions tried out:

• try to run it natively under win7 (failed of course)
• Using a virtual machine and forwarding a external bluetooth device into the VM. This gave me more success: I was able to connect from the Chrome Dev to the USB device, but any communication after coupling was not possible, too.
• Using persistent external boot device ( (y) )

But... Maybe someone has managed to run it under Windows 7?

Unfortunately, I don't know anything about how to enable this. 😔
