I am not sure, but try searching for a folder called TAC (The Adventure Company) - the game and its saves might be located there.

I just opened up my game and made a save to check the location. I don't know if it's the same for all Windows versions, but my computer is running windows 10 and for me the direct locations is:
C:\Users\Jen\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\The Adventure Company\Evil Under the Sun\Saved.Games

so, yours should be the same, just put your windows username where it says Jen

It's been awhile since I've used Windows 7 (I've had this computer since August of last year), but if I remember right, the Windows 7 save directory was the same as it is now with W10

Before you place the saved game file; play the game for a little bit and then save the game. Then place the saved game file that should be renumbered as the last number in the saved game folder. See if that works.

Almost all OS now for new computers is Win10. So there's no choice for new computers.

No choice if you're buying a laptop or a name brand desktop anyway.
There are still a few places that build custom computers that will put Windows 7 on a computer for you, but they aren't likely to offer Windows 7 with the latest generation processors. Microsoft has conspired not to support the latest Intel and AMD processors on Windows 7.

Buying a new computer with Windows 7 doesn't ensure an old saved game will work.

Still Life has several versions.
Saved games aren't necessarily compatible between versions.
Are you using a save from the same version you're using?
