Marketing: It was a decision to position the product as a significantly larger version of Windows 8

Windows 8 is a significantly larger version of Windows 8.

Marketing theme. A 10 is much more rounded and better sounding than a 9.

It seems that Microsoft skipped 9 because of legacy applications, some developers created applications for Windows 95 and 98, using only 9 and a Windows 9 would create noise, if not conflict, that's why they decided to jump to 10, we will have to look for more precise information from Microsoft, although it's nothing relevant.

Windows 7 is no longer supported, can Driver Booster update my drivers? :: What would happen if you took a very powerful and modern PC and installed an old operating system such as Windows 95, 98, 1.0 or even MS-DOS on it?
