Right now SIgnal Desktop Standalone has no notification experience for Windows 7. The beta build apparently shows one notification, and thereafter nothing. These changes, adapted from the original PR, get us notifications on downlevel Windows. No changes have been made to the experience on OSX, Linux, or recent versions of Windows.
