I believe VS2008sp1 also removes the Windows 2000 compatibility, and VS2005sp1 removes the Windows 9x compatibility. Note that in some cases, service packs for Visual Studio may also limit compatibility. Windows XP and higher are still supported by all versions of Visual Studio (initially Microsoft wanted to abandon XP in Visual Studio 2012, but because of the large demand, they patched XP support back in). Visual Studio 2010 also dropped Windows 2000 support. Visual Studio 2008 stopped supporting the Win9x branch, and also NT4 and lower (although apparently Visual Studio 2005 may accidentally have pulled in a kernel function that was not available on Windows 95, and the binary needs to be patched before it will work). ![]()
