We were using Omnis 7 by 1995. The fact the your licenses start C7RSI proves that it is written in Omnis 7. The Omnis library will be a .LBR file.
If you can work with a Hyper V platform that will be good. Are you making any system amendments i.e. using Omnis 7 Development version? License number starts C7DSI, so you can open the library and edit the formats. Or just helping the user client to upgrade their platform.
Hope you are now in a successful place!
Cheers. Neil

I think it is me not understanding what you are trying to do.
Omnis 7 installs as a 32 bit App in the Program Files (x86) folder. Unless you have a version of Win 11 that does not have the 32 bit folder.
I am running:-
Edition Windows 11 Home
Version 23H2
Installed on 08/09/2023
OS build 22631.3737
Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.22700.1009.0Are you trying to install on a Windows server which may not support 32 bit Apps? Sorry, not my area of expertise.
Perhaps someone else can give you better guidance. But I will help within my limited experience.

I am an Omnis developer still using Omnis 7. I do my Dev on a Win 10 PC but I have just successfully installed Omnis 7 version 7.3.8 on my newer Win 11 PC. After a cursory test it seems to be working fine. I am also helping a user organisation upgrade their platform to Win 11 and Win Server 2022 and SQL Server 2022. All is working fine.
Or have I misunderstood the question?
