Microsoft users' summary of embedded Windows

Computer Store News: Microsoft started embedding from NT4.0, but it is a separate version from CE. At the time, I used NT4.0 Embedded to make a 14MB version with an explorer graphical interface.

XPE is a very componentized version with more than 10,000 components. The latest can be cropped to more than 100 megabytes and is very playable.

WES7 and WES8 also have a componentized version, with only a few components, and there is basically no playability.

There is no componentized version of WES8.1. The so-called Windows 8.1 embedded version is the normal desktop version. It adds embedded components (mainly disk write filtering, but many third-party disk filtering software such as Carrefour, Basically can kill spikes) There is no playable shape.

After WINDOWS8, the original CE gave up, all using the NT code base. WINDOWS10 is a version of the big one. Moreover, WINDOWS for mobile phones and 9-inch tablets is available free of charge. This is the main reason for the competition of andriod. In the embedded market, Microsoft is no longer an opponent of Android and Apple. The free tricks are used. Open source. In the competition between Android and Apple, in the short term, embedded Windows is unsightly to see what is going on, and it remains to be seen for a long time.
