The ``singlestep`` command has been replaced by the ``one-insn-per-tb``
command, which has the same behaviour but a less misleading name.
Host Architectures
------------------
System emulation on 32-bit Windows hosts (removed in 9.0)
'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
Windows 11 has no support for 32-bit host installs, and Windows 10 did
not support new 32-bit installs, only upgrades. 32-bit Windows support
has now been dropped by the MSYS2 project. QEMU also is deprecating
and dropping support for 32-bit x86 host deployments in
general. 32-bit Windows is therefore no longer a supported host for
QEMU. Since all recent x86 hardware from the past >10 years is
capable of the 64-bit x86 extensions, a corresponding 64-bit OS should
be used instead.
