Windows 7 is no longer supported as you can read about here:

 

https://helpforum.sky.com/t5/Sky-Go/Sky-Go-Desktop-End-of-support-for-Windows-7-and-Windows-8-1/m-p/...

 

You will now need Windows 10 or 11.

Microsoft themselves ceased supporting Windows 7 more than four years ago (on 14th January 2020)

 

It really shouldn't be permitted near an internet connection.
