What was the specs of the virtual machine? And was anything changed by its default specs during the upgrade plzzzzz tell

[@NTDEV]

Up until Windows 98, I used 86box (Pentium machine). Then I switched to VMware. Unfortunately, yes, some things got lost during the upgrades, because sometimes I had to install x64 builds, and also things were lost during the switch from pre-reset Longhorn to post-reset Longhorn...

[@geekionizado]

would be nice if you started with some files and see if they ended up in the windows 10 last install

[@icedterminal]

They do. Believe it or not Windows has incredibly backwards compatibly. Someone else already did with the major releases. Not each build. Which is half of the list this video does. All the user files remained there.

[@NTDEV]

I did an aftermath video where you can check out what remained from all these builds. Lots of interesting things, if you ask me!

[@GlenTindal]

Can you do every build of macOS?

[@NTDEV]

It's pretty hard, if not impossible, due to the fact that macOS went through 3 (soon to be 4) architectural changes - it first used the Motorola 68k processor, then PowerPC, and now x86. On the other hand, the PC used the x86 platform since it's inception, so all the programs/operating systems still work as intended even on modern computers. So, TL;DR - Macs cannot be upgraded as easily (I mean, from versions before 10.4) due to the fact that before 2005 it used a completely different architecture.

[@GlenTindal]

@@NTDEV Oh ok. Well, thank you for the response. It would've been interesting to watch.

Glad to be helpful. I might actually do a walk-through over all macOS versions, just for fun... I'm just hoping that VMware on Windows will allow me to do this :)

@Kernel NT windows 8 and vista seem to be overly hated on, more than they seem to actually need. they both do the job, especially if all you do is school work, office work, and paper printing. if you're a a gamer of sorts, then just use Windows 10.

[@BigGuy223]

@Kernel NT that's because the people who give feedback and talk about their dislikes are the same ones who just like the older OS. as in people like you are a minority, and that's why they don t listen.

Im not sure I understand how this is an 'experiment' . What were you expecting, what did you learn? Surely you could say more than just "not alot" and "it is upgradeable" .

[@NTDEV]

Well, first of all, I got to check out all Windows builds, with some features that were never actually released to the public. Secondly, we can have a look at the evolution of Windows (or rather Windows Setup), and check out some design quirks that are unique. Also, if you look at my conclusion video, you can see that I found quite a lot of interesting stuff, including a TV guide from 2006, some album art for some unknown artist (at least for me) and lots of debugging software and readme files and mailer names and internal accounts and all of this kind of stuff... I also made this experiment more for entertaining purposes, as I knew from the beginning that while the final product will certainly be interesting, the lessons that can be taken from it... Not so much. Just think of this video as a heavily souped up "upgrading every version of Windows" kind... :)
