Not every version, I think − the affected driver is
ltmdm64.sysand AFAIK only shipped on 64-bit Windows Vista and later but could be installed on Windows XP Professional x64 Edition.Fun fact, XP x64 edition was just a reskinned server 2003 64 bit.
It was done so poorly that some programs would complain that you shouldn’t install the software on a server. Some applications would refuse to install because they saw the OS as a server.
XP x64 edition was a mistake.
Oh my god, they Windows ME’d it.
ME did have some improvements over 98SE.
It handled multiple monitors and had Internet connection sharing, two things 98SE couldn’t do.
Most people don’t realize that ME wasn’t completely terrible. Same with Vista, and 8.1. Windows 8 is unforgivable. The UI changes were simply a mistake. Made the OS really difficult to use unless you were fat fingering a touchscreen all day… That’s the only scenario where the UI of W8 made any sense. For kB/mouse users, out was just unwieldy. The function of W8 was fine, but it was like putting a sports car motor into a minivan, and then loading it up with lead plates and wondering why the handling sucks.
I have… Thoughts about W11 too, but they’re more under the hood complaints. Some UI complaints but mostly under the hood stuff that makes me go hmmm.
