I'm thinking of subscribing to the Patreon version.

But the latest version p1.17.5(extract.exe) is detected as a virus and automatically removed by Windows10 and crashes with Exception 0xc0000005 in runtime.asmstdcall on Windows7.

So I want to use the old versions(p1.17.2 and p1.17.3).

Do the old versions still work?

Huh? If your using p1.17.5, then your already subscribed, nothing to think about. The only reason your getting the virus warnings is because Windows Defender is terrible and marks everything as a false-positive (Everything is cross compiled under Linux). Just make an exception for the program, or disable Windows Defender and you should be fine.
