So, in theory I should only need to complete the following steps?
1 - update the encryption.php file
2 - update the bcrypt.php file
3 - install "Mysqli for Opencart 1.5.x" extension
made it work this way. And I so far only found that file/image-editor,
unable to further do it's job, as it comes by default. But you won't be
able, to destroy anything by trying, so, just go ahed!

Will the changes made previously work with 7.4? Do I need to make any further amendments?The PHP version of your web space will soon be updated from version 7.2 to the latest stable version, which is currently version 7.4. The reason for the update is that PHP version 7.2 will reach end of life on 30 November 2020.
I don't think so.Do I need to make any further amendments?

E.g. mostly all operations with arrays and where are values used not check before if they really exist.
Also some notices about integer values, etc. ..
Better you try your installation before in a testshop with php 7.4..x

still equipped with the 1.5.6.4-type non-responsive OC Theme.

You could then get a responsive Theme, one like shown here, i.E. the
OC Bootstrap Pro - Bootstrap 3 theme with options:

JohnP's favoured OC v.1.5.6.x Bootstrap Theme Extension, , to have it fully responsive as well,
including a bunch of very useful free Mods.

The OC Download linked has been updated already, to fix some (int) - security related finding,
and it contains a system/library/encryption.php file, able to handle up to PHP v.7.4.11 so far.

And if you like the most efficient 1.5.6.x VqMod-Version ever created, MaxD's unique VqMod PRO 2.6.1
works perfect with this Version. In contrary to 'regular' VqMod, it creates the whole bunch of
cached vqmodded Files, instead of waiting, until some Routine, to be modified, is called on
some Page the first time. This way, It saves overall (first) loading time on not yet called pages
too, in addition to so find potential Code-Problems or Misses in VqMods, before they ACT in real.
And it only presents a minor Error message, if it's own cache-clear function 'timewise' collides
with similar maual functions/operations from VqMod Editors and so ..., but only once in a while,
probably just to demonstrate, that it works ....

and you're quite ready, to have, what it takes, to compete with a very efficient OpenCart Instument.
All it then still takes, is to rewrite some config.php Links, and some links in the Theme
Header File, to make your Images, CSS Styles and Scripts 'cookiefree', and then you're all set, to go.
Find some infos on this somewhere here, I forgot, where it's placed, just search for it ...
Good Luck
