Because seven ate nine.
>>103243014Because pajeets got lazy at checking the windows version in the 90s for windows 95 and 98, so they just check for "Windows 9" in the OS string.Releasing windows 9 would cause chaos with apps.
Hello my dear sir 9 is holy number of goddess Nava Durga, it is blasphemy to use it
>>103243057And? Let chaos reign.
>>103243031kek
>>103243031fpbp good one
>>103243095this
>>103243057Microsoft doesn't want you to use Windows 95 or 98. They prevented that from happening. Bastards now we got stuck with shitty versions of Windows and not the gold standard of operating systems
I don't understand how or why people pretend to believe them when they make obviously fake and gay excuses like this.
Wait until you learn about the NT version number
>>103243014same reason iphone did
>>103243014when checking for the windows os version in a program, searching for windows 9 would return windows 95 or 98. similar to the y2k problem.
>>103243031fappy brappy
>>103243014technically 8.1 was 9
>>103243014here in superpower india we call window 98 "window 9" so microsoft run by indian say "no windows 9 we get confuse". thats why ok i tell you why
>>103244515I understand saar thank you saar have a great time
>>103243014Because marketing team said that it will be a good thing.Also because HEHEHEHEHUEXD 8.1 WAS WIN 9 BECAUSE 8+1 IS 9, GET IT?Also if anyone start yapping about the issue with programs and the Win9x head they gonna get their butthole cauterized with hot iron. They could easily ignore it by using WinIX or any other header.
>>103244666>Windows 1>Windows 2>Windows 3.X>Windows 4 (95)>Windows 5 (98)>Windows 6 (ME)>Windows 7 (XP)>Windows 8 (Vista)>Windows 9 (7)ngmi
>>103244696>inb4 hurrr it's actually>Windows 1>Windows 2>Windows 3.X>Windows 4 (95/98/ME)>Windows 5 (XP)>Windows 6 (Vista)>Windows 7No and here's why: If 95 is basically the same as Windows ME, then Windows Vista is the same as Windows 7, meaning that Windows 7 is still Windows 6.>Windows 6 (Vista/"7")>Windows 7 ("8"/"8.1)>Windows 8 ("10")>Windows 9 ("11")The latest version IS Windows 9, if we're gonna follow dumb revisionism.
>>103244515that was amazing
>>103243014Because some software checked "if system startswith 9" and it was a dumb idea to enumerate system versions and match 95 and 98. Adding new version like 9 would make that legacy third party or maybe even first party software broken. Skipping the version was safer.
>>103243014because Windows (10) was supposed to be the ultimate perpetually updated version Except that they lied
>>1032430148.1 is windows 9
they didnt do the needful
>>103247401it wouldn't have been an issue desuany software written in the 90s were long deprecated when win10 came out in 2015noone uses software that oldno software that old is worth being used
>>103248583Vidya.
>>103248608ok you're actually got a good point, my mistake
