Hello!
Starting from TortoiseSVN 1.14, the minimum supported platform is Windows 10 [1]:
[[[ TortoiseSVN 1.14 requires Windows 10 or later. It won't run on Windows 8.1 anymore. ]]]
So I would like to suggest updating the related check in the TortoiseSVN installer.
In more detail, TortoiseSVN requires support for the SetThreadDpiAwarenessContext() [2] function that was introduced in Windows 10 version 1607. For detecting this version, I used the existing approach of searching for a system dll with the appropriate build number.
