Latest version of QB64PE or QB64 compatible with Windows XP (32-bit)?

if i were more clever back then.  as i think i am now.  only while running kde plasma 5.20.5.  that came with debian "bullseye".  i could have installed "kdialog" and fixed myself that way.  but it would have still required the fix.  that replaced "xmessage" back then in 2022.  until qb64 phoenix 3.4.

i used solus operating system back then.  but with mate desktop.  the iso of their kde version wouldn't boot on my computer.

one good thing.  the majority of "qb64 samples" programs.  found on this thread:

https://qb64phoenix.com/forum/showthread...samples%22

still work on qb64 1.5.  but if the user expects something loaded.  like a740g's "particle" program.  better be on a modern 64-bit capable computer.

(the program featured.  in the first post of that thread probably wouldn't work on windowsxp.)

"particle" program?
