Official announcement,It is expected that support for the Windows 7 operating system will be officially stopped starting from August 13, 2026.
After this, the game will not run properly on Windows 7 systems.

"League of Legends" stated that it is fully aware that this change may cause inconvenience to players, but this adjustment is necessary to ensure the continuous optimization of game performance and the smooth launch of new features in the future.
It is understood that the official "League of Legends" has also prepared a complete official guide for players to upgrade Win7 to Win10.
If the player's computer hardware cannot meet the minimum requirements of Win10, he will not be able to experience "League of Legends"."League of Legends" officials recommend upgrading computer hardware (such as increasing memory, replacing the CPU), or replacing devices that are compatible with Win10.
