Installed but not yet tested. Any thoughts on when CN EU 2024.2 might emerge?

Who knows. When it was 4 updates a year it was more predictable, now it's anyone's guess

It appears v7.18+ is for Windows 10 or higher.

Indeed. Here are the system requirement for 7.18.1.0 from https://www.garmin.com/en-US/software/express/windows/

Windows
  • Windows 10 or newer, Microsoft .NET 4.7.2 (included)
  • 1024 x 768 display, USB port and 1 GB RAM
  • High-speed internet access (not for use with dial-up, mobile or satellite connections)
  • May require up to 20 GB free disk space
  • For users running Windows 8 or older, please download version 7 of Garmin Express for Windows.
Based on posts on the Garmin forum I don't get the sense that Garmin included an OS detection routine in their installation or upgrade program. Has anyone tried installing or upgrading on Win7?

Yes, I tried to update within Garmin Express but it said my v7.17.3.0 was up to date. I then downloaded v7.18.1 from Garmin's website and installed. It installed with out errors or any notifications, but when opened it basically crashes. It gives you a chance to close, send Garmin a report, or reopen. Reopening results in Windows or Express closing Express.

Useless for me, then.
At home I'm at 4G+ router and at work on StarLink.
