I haven't used anything since 7. In my opinion, 7 was a peak if not the peak. Vista was also very good IME. XP was decent, but not as good as Vista IME. I heard that ME sucked and skipped it. Win 98 wasn't great, but 98 SE (second edition) was pretty decent and the best version until XP came out.

Pretty good list, but for me, 7>Vista>XP. Vista was pretty good, better than XP, but not quite as good as 7. I stopped at 7. I had no interest in going to 8 or 10, and after many years of using Windows (and experimenting with Linux off and on), swapped to MacOS. I'm happy with the change on several levels.

You just have to be on Windows 18.09 or later and install this from MSFT.

HEIC/F is not new, been the Apple standard for 5 years now.

Great format.

So, it is supportable in Windows, just not by default which is not surprising.

It sounds to me like the problem isn't Apple, it's the customers.
