    changing it too much carries high risks

    This is such a Windows way of thinking and I can’t really explain it. Why does every other OS constantly change and evolve but Windows is like “can’t touch this code from a quarter century ago?”

      I dare say, that 90% of all companies in Europe and US, use Windows. And lots of companies relies heavily on software built 20-30 years ago. Microsoft knows this.

      That’s why they are very reluctant to “touch that piece of code from a quarter century ago” because there’s probably a lot of software that would break without it. Software their target audience need.

      I don’t see the problem with it. Microsoft historically does a great job of making everything worse with updates.
