I use the module 'platform' to get information on the system my script is executed. I have 4 different operating systems in use: Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10. By using the module platform version 1.0.3 I get the following results by platform.version().startswith: Windows 7: 6.1 Windows 8: 6.2 Windows 8.1: 6.3 Windows 10: 10.0 I upgraded the module platform to version 1.0.7 (delivered with the squish-version squish-6.0.3-qt56x-win32-msvc12) Now I get the following results: platform.version() Windows 7: 6.1.7601 Windows 8: 6.2.9200 Windows 8.1: 6.2.9200 Windows 10: 6.2.9200 So there is no longer a difference between Windows 8 and Windows 10.

Platform module version 1.0.8 added support for Windows 8.1 and later. You actually downgraded to 1.0.7, which is why you lost functionality.
