Comment 1 Yedidyah Bar David 2017-03-06 07:57:45 UTC 
Lev pushed a patch [1] reintroducing an updated WinVer.nsh supporting windows 2016. We discussed this internally, and agreed to try and get it fixed in nsis first, and lev posted there a patch [2] to do that.

It was already verified by someone from the community (I have built a special build for him).
