Please add a note that Qucs cannot be installed on Windows 7. The installations ends succesfully, but the programm cannot be started. A following message appears: "The procedure entry point GetPackageFamilyName could not be located in the DLL kernel32.dll". Microsoft says that it happens if you try to run a program which is not compatible with Windows 7, because GetPackageFamilyName was introduced in Windows 8.

but the programm cannot be started. A following message appears: "The procedure entry point GetPackageFamilyName could not be located in the DLL kernel32.dll"

This cannot be fixed, because Qt6 developers has dropped Windows 7 support. Please upgrade the system, switch to Linux, or use the older releases with Qt5. I will add a note in the documentation.
