Editing WoW

Some 9x applications can be run on later systems like Windows XP because of a feature Microsoft developed called '''Windows on Windows'''. However, support is very poor and 64-bit versions of Windows don't support it (because Windows on Windows refers to 32-bit program support instead). Selecting Windows 95 or Windows 98 in compatibility mode may help, and Windows XP will get the best compatibility, but it's best to use XP in a dual boot setup (or in a virtual machine instead) since it's no longer officially supported by Microsoft.

-'''Windows on Windows''' (often shortened to '''WoW''') is a component of Windows NT that allows 16-bit programs to run in 32-bit environments, also known as '''NTVDM''', or in the case of WoW64 for x64 releases of Windows, 32-bit programs in 64-bit.
-==Compatibility==
-While WoW64 is able to run most if not all 32-bit applications and games on contemporary 64-bit versions of Windows, support for 16-bit applications in 64-bit Windows is nonexistent; attempting to run 16-bit EXEs will result in an error message saying that the program is incompatible. For this, it is recommended to use [[DOSBox]] or [[WineVDM]] in some instances. That being said, the WoW layer for 16-bit applications isn't perfect either, and suffers from compatibility issues. Some games may run too fast, while others suffer from glitches or instability.
