Major features of the Windows NT family include Windows Shell, Windows API, Native API, Active Directory, Group Policy, Hardware Abstraction Layer, NTFS, BitLocker, Windows Store, Windows Update, and Hyper-V. The latest versions support x86 (including IA-32 and 圆4) and ARM. Initially, it supported several instruction set architectures, including IA-32, MIPS, and DEC Alpha support for PowerPC, Itanium, 圆4, and ARM were added later. It is a multi-architecture operating system. NT was the first purely 32-bit version of Windows, whereas its consumer-oriented counterparts, Windows 3.1x and Windows 9x, were 16-bit/32-bit hybrids. Starting with Windows 2000, "NT" was removed from the product name and is only included in the product version string along with several low-level places within the system. "NT" was formerly expanded to "New Technology" but no longer carries any specific meaning.
Gradually, the Windows NT family was expanded into Microsoft's general-purpose operating system product line for all personal computers, deprecating the Windows 9x family. It was intended to complement consumer versions of Windows that were based on MS-DOS (including Windows 1.0 through Windows 3.1x). The first version of Windows NT was Windows NT 3.1 and was produced for workstations and server computers.
It is a processor-independent, multiprocessing and multi-user operating system. Windows NT is a proprietary graphical operating system produced by Microsoft, the first version of which was released on July 27, 1993.
