R5 Raw using Windows 7

[K28 478]

Does the Canon R5 Raw work with Windows 7?

I think that I already know the answer, but if you do not ask you do not receive an answer no matter how the chips fall!

If you don't use Photo Gallery, you can view RAW files from within Windows Explorer by installing the Microsoft Codec Pack separately by itself via the Microsoft Download Center. However you need to have QFE2 installed for Windows Live Essentials to ensure the RAW photo support functions correctly

Acrually it does seem it will if you were to install the Camera Raw 12.4 plugin for photoshop cc.

You need a creative cloud version of photoshop or newer photoshop elemens version to use the 12.4 camera raw plugin

The Canon EOS R5 does not have camera raw support in either Catalina or through Big Sur 11.1....
