  2. Windows Subsystem for Linux - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Subsystem_for_Linux

    [7] WSL 1 is not capable of running all Linux software, such as 32-bit binaries, [41] [42] or those that require specific Linux kernel services not implemented in WSL. Due to a total lack of Linux in WSL 1, kernel modules, such as device drivers, cannot be run.

  3. Volume boot record - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_boot_record

    The MBR code of OS/2, MS-DOS (prior to 7.0), PC DOS (up to 7.10), and Windows NT (up to ca. 2007) happens to provide this same interface as well, although these systems do not make use of it. The MBR installed by Windows NT 6.0 (and higher) uses other registers, and is therefore no longer compatible with these extensions.

  4. List of features removed in Windows 11 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_features_removed...

    Windows 11 is only available for the x86-64 and ARM64 CPU architectures, as Microsoft is no longer offering a Windows build for IA-32 x86 and ARMv7 systems. [1] Additionally, NTVDM and the 16-bit Windows on Windows subsystems, which allowed 32-bit versions of Windows to directly run 16-bit DOS and Windows programs, are no longer included with ...

  5. EFI system partition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EFI_System_partition

    UEFI support in Windows began in 2008 with Windows Vista SP1. [22] The Windows boot manager is located at the \EFI\Microsoft\Boot\ subfolder of the EFI system partition. [23] On Windows XP 64-Bit Edition and later, access to the EFI system partition is obtained by running the mountvol command. Mounts the EFI system partition on the specified drive.

  6. Microsoft basic data partition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_basic_data_partition

    This is analogous to the conversion from partition types 0x01, 0x04, 0x06, 0x07, 0x0B, 0x0C, and 0x0E to partition type 0x42 on MBR partitioned disks. Linux used the same partition type GUID for basic data partition as Windows prior to introduction of a Linux specific Data Partition GUID 0FC63DAF-8483-4772-8E79-3D69D8477DE4 .

  7. Partition type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_type

    The partition type (or partition ID) in a partition's entry in the partition table inside a master boot record (MBR) is a byte value intended to specify the file system the partition contains or to flag special access methods used to access these partitions (e.g. special CHS mappings, LBA access, logical mapped geometries, special driver access, hidden partitions, secured or encrypted file ...

  8. GUID Partition Table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GUID_Partition_Table

    A single partition of type EEh, encompassing the entire GPT drive (where "entire" actually means as much of the drive as can be represented in an MBR), is indicated and identifies it as GPT. Operating systems and tools which cannot read GPT disks will generally recognize the disk as containing one partition of unknown type and no empty space ...

  9. Mingw-w64 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mingw-w64

    WSL lets Linux ELF binaries run on Windows through a managed Virtual Machine. Cygwin provides a full POSIX environment (as a windows DLL) in which applications, compiled as Windows EXEs, run as they would under Unix. [7] Instead of providing a full environment like Cygwin does, MSYS2 tasks itself with being a development and deployment platform ...
