RE: PPSSPP 1.9
Some fixes, but a lot improvement for multiplatform emulator. Good to see something, but a lot fixes are open. I saw a lot Atrac3+ problem which need some fix, instead of API work on some platform/mobile. This needs more and more work, fixes need investigation and acknowledge to fix. Years and years waiting for sync audio, v-sync and Atrac3+ fixes and more and more works on a lot platforms intead of important fixes.

My dream and investigation with this started with Rondo of Blood (Dracula X Chronicles) Atrac3+ Fix.

I know I'm way behind the times, and I already know what the answer probably is, but I figured it couldn't hurt to ask;

Has Windows XP support officially been dropped? 1.9.0 doesn't run on my old system and I'd just like to verify if this is intentional or an oversight.

RE: PPSSPP 1.9
As you can read in the release notes dropping support for Win XP was intentional.

From quite a few years XP support required additional compatibility libraries and hacks that annoyed many people, it was kept for so long pretty much only because XP was popular in China much longer than in rest of the world. So we have 2019 now, XP isn't soo popular even in China anymore and MS no longer supports XP in VS 2019 so yeah, PPSSPP no longer compiles for that outdated platform. It might still be relatively easy to build PPSSPP for XP, but any changes that would not work on XP will no longer include hacks to support it.
