Not really an excuse when Windows 10 can run most Windows NT4.0 software, can get to run win3.1 and dos apps (which are different OS, not just older versions).

Userspace GNU/Linux is also pretty bad about this, despite the effort put in by Linux.
- yardie 9y agoA few simple apps here and there is not most Windows app. I keep a windows 98 VM around simply because developers played fast and loose with the security of the OS. They would not be able to do that today. Like a user editable ini file in the windows folder.
- Phrodo_00 9y agoYeah, Windows 98 is a completely different OS from modern Windoes, makes sense that compatibility is not strong. It would be like expecting OSX 10 to run classic Mac apps.
