Why is there no windows 9

after the classic and long-lived Wiondow XP, Microsoft changed the naming habits of the Windows operating system, saying that the change was not accurate, but that it was a return. Because from Windows 1.0, Windows 2.0, Windows 3.0, Windows 98, Windows Me,windows xp,windows. Widows 8,windows 8.1, Windows10 everyone can see. Changed the naming habit from Windows95, and changed back from Windows 7.

You notice that after Windows 8.1, the direct appearance is WINDOWS10, so where does Windows 9 go?

It is said that according to ExtremeTech reader Benny, it is because in Japan 9 is a taboo number, because the number 9 is similar to the bitter pronunciation of Japanese.

Originally, Windows 9 in system code is the abbreviation for Windows 95, Windows 98, so the program will see Windows 9 when it is the old system, so Microsoft developers to avoid this instability factor, have to name Windows 10. The code is as follows.
