I'm testing out 64-bit Windows 11 with my BBS - I've gotten all of my
archivers switched out for Windows-compatible versions and most of my
door games are Javascript based. I've added a game door to multi-BBS
games, since I don't have a lot of gamers logging in here.

Worried that in 2025, Windows 10 will go EOL and there are no supported
32-bit windows options at that point. It's either that or Linux.
