Microsoft Windows 8.1 to Microsoft Windows 10. Why?
Microsoft Windows 8.1 to Microsoft Windows 10. Why?
As you may know, Microsoft skipped from 8.1 from 10. Why did they do that and why didn´t they release a Windows 9? I mean I just don't know how there is no Windows 9, even if its a unreleased version.

Re: Microsoft Windows 8.1 to Microsoft Windows 10. Why?
Based on my understanding of the question, the reason why Microsoft skipped out on Windows 9 is because we have Windows 9x (which includes Windows 95 and 98). However, there might've been more complications behind that, but this one's the most logical reason I could think of

Nerdiest nerd of the FTP Access-only town in Nerdana.
Emulators and Hypervisors I use
86Box for early versions of Windows, Intel Apple Rhapsody, OS/2 pre-3.0, DOS, etc.
VMware Workstation for later versions of Windows (sometimes early versions), Intel macOS, OS/2 post-3.0, etc.
Mini vMac for System Software pre-7.x
Basilisk II for Mac OS 7.x-8.1
SheepShaver for Mac OS 7.x-9
QEMU for later PPC Mac OS, Windows RT, etc.
