Hi,
https://borntolearn.mslearn.net/b/weblog/archive/2015/11/18/updates-on-retiring-exams-and-certification
Windows Client exams, 687 and 688, retirement dates have been extended to July 31, 2016. The associated MCSA will retire on January 31, 2016 as will the upgrade exams, 689 and 692. As previously announced, the MCSA: Windows 7
certification retires on November 30, 2015, but the associated exams will remain in market and earn a Specialist credential. To earn a Specialist credential on Windows 10, take 70-697!
So MCSA Windows 7 still recognized.
