I had to keep an old Windows 7 laptop around for a very old project from the 1990's. At some point the cost to keep going on VB6 wasn't viable so we ported the entire project to C# and at the time VS2008. Today it loads right up on VS2022.

As to your old system, the usual is to get the PC repaired, install your compiler of choice then restore your project files from backups. If you didn't keep backups then it's a lesson learned.
