When updating V3, “Error 123: Unsupported operating system” appears.
"Why is this error happening to me?"
“Error 123: Unsupported operating system” occurs because the SHA-2 update for Windows 7 has not been applied to your PC. Therefore, if you want to continue using V3, we recommend that you upgrade your Windows to an operating system equipped with SHA-2 (Windows 8, 8.1, 10 or higher).
“I don’t want to upgrade my Windows.”
If for any reason you want to continue using Windows 7 and also want to use V3, we will guide you through installing Windows hotfixes (KB4490628, KB4474419) for Windows 7.
