Does Windows NT have a Windows 9x API emulator?

  Windows NT predates Windows 95 for two years. And yes it did had emulators for Windows 16, and DOS https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_DOS_machine https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_DOS_machine https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_on_Windows https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_on_Windows

  If you squint a bit (well, a lot really), Win32S on 3.1 and Windows 95’s Win32 implementation are Windows NT emulators running on top of 16 bit Windows.

  Windows NT doesn't emulated Windows, it is Windows. Wine is not Windows and emulates Windows.

    It is windows today, but in the beginning the two were incompatible different products.

    Wine Is Not (an) Emulator
    • mitxela 7d ago
      Yet, it emulates windows and is a windows emulator.

        No, it's a Win32 implementation for Unix.
