[–] wander1236@sh.itjust.works 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) I'm pretty sure they used 10 because 7 was build 7xxx, 8 was build 8xxx, and 8.1 was 9xxx, making at least the initial versions of 10 10xxx. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Moonrise2473@feddit.it 1 point 2 years ago IMHO that's a coincidence of the build counter. 7 was 7600, 8 was 9200 and 8.1 was 9600. Then they changed how often they redo a build, so now it's over 23000 But at the time of win 10 release I saw on Twitter a screenshot of a decompiled ancient Java setup that did a check "if Windows 9*"... Can't find that again permalink fedilink source parent
