The Microsoft Windows History from Windows 1.0 up to Windows 10. Support dates for Windows Vista, 7, 8.1 and 10 are listed here: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-ph/windows/lifecycle I’m also looking for translators for this video… so if you’d like to translate it, you can submit it and I’ll publish it if it’s translated well enough. As you can see, I noted some mistakes from this video: About Windows 9: About the song: About Windows Server 2016: Codenames for Windows operating systems (very long list, so I took some): #Windows #Microsoft #WindowsHistory
– Windows 1.0 up to 95 support dates are actually December 31, not December 21.
– Windows Me is missing.
– Some Windows 10 screenshots from this video consisted of both the technical preview (big start button) and the release version (small start button)
– Windows 3.1 is more popular than Windows 3.0.
– Windows NT 4 was not based on Windows 95, as it has a different code. Although the interface remains the same. Windows NT and 9x became unified as a result of the release of Windows XP in 2001.
– Windows 10 does not have an “end-support” date. The support end date listed in the video is the end support for the RTM version of Windows 10.
Windows 9 has some technical previews (with build 6.4, meaning it originated previously from the kernel of 8.1). A problem arose, which is the program’s ability to know what version of Windows is it running from. The name “Windows 9” caused some other programs to think it’s running from Windows 95 or Windows 98, and causes it to crash. Windows 9 was changed to 10, and NT 6.4 was changed to NT 10.0.
It’s called “Title.wma”. No particular title, except that it’s a song that plays during the first time setup for Windows XP. It can be found on the oobeimages folder of Windows XP’s system32 folder.
Windows Server 2016 was released to manufacturing at September 2016, and is scheduled for general availability on October 2016. A video remake is underway.
