Which part are you objecting to?

  I object to NT natively supporting 16 bit apps. I think they dropped that in Win7 or before. Of course with VMs everything is possible but it's no longer built-in.

    Windows NT is 3.1 and above

      Eh, not quite. 3.1 ran on DOS, there was an NT 3.1 (separate OS) that was NT. NT and legacy Windows ran in parallel for a while, up through Windows 2000/Windows ME. That ended with Windows XP, the first consumer Windows NT release.

    32 bit Windows NT supported 16 bit Windows apps (and DOS) right until 32 bit Windows was dropped with Windows 11. 64 bit Windows has never supported them. As 64 bit Windows became commonly installed around Windows 7, you might get the impression it was dropped then, but it was still around if you really wanted it.

  I misread it. I thought it said windows nt is based on windows 1 and 2. carry on
