You have several problems, one of which should be cured today.
Linux Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS [5.15.0-191-generic|libc 2.35] needs 2.38 and he said in another thread he'll compile an app that can run 2.35.
I saw another thread where someone said Windows Vista is too old to support.
I don't know about ARM.
BTW, Linux Mint 22.3 has 2.38 and runs these apps.

That specific computer is running Windows 7, not Vista.

I am aware of the pending fix for Linux and ARM devices
