Releases

[edit]

Windows Embedded for Point of Service (WEPOS)

[edit]

Windows Embedded for Point of Service was released on May 24, 2005, nearly a year after itsWindows XP SP2 counterpart was launched byMicrosoft in August 2004.[15][2] WEPOS expandedMicrosoft'sWindows Embedded family of products. It was the first edition of Windows Embedded that could use the Windows Update Agent to update an installed and deployed image.[16] Service Pack 3 (SP3) for WEPOS was released on October 8, 2008.[17] Mainstream support ended on April 12, 2011, and extended support ended on April 12, 2016. When the new Microsoft Lifecycle Support policy for Internet Explorer went into effect on January 12, 2016,IE6 support was dropped from not only WEPOS, but all other supported platforms.[18]

Windows Embedded POSReady 2009

[edit]

Windows Embedded POSReady 2009 offers more features over Windows Embedded for Point of Service such as Full Localization,Internet Explorer 7 andXPS support if.NET Framework 3.5 or higher is installed.[19] This edition was released on December 9, 2008, exactly seven months after itsWindows XP SP3 counterpart was launched on May 6, 2008.[15] Prior to XP's end of support, someWindows XP users have reported that theRegedit tool on their operating system can be used to 'trick'Windows Update into accepting updates targeting POSReady 2009.[20][21][22] POSReady 2009 is also notable as being the lastXP derivedoperating system to receive official support fromMicrosoft. Starting in 2017, Microsoft announced end of support for POSReady 2009. Mainstream support for Windows Embedded POSReady 2009—the last supported edition of Windows based on Windows XP—ended on April 8, 2014, and extended support ended on April 9, 2019, marking the overall end of all security updates for the Windows XP codebase after almost 18 years.[3]

Windows Embedded POSReady 7

[edit]

Windows Embedded POSReady 7, which is based onWindows 7 withSP1,[23] was released on July 1, 2011, nearly two years afterWindows 7 debuted. It is the last supported edition of Windows based onWindows 7 to receive official support fromMicrosoft. Mainstream support for Windows Embedded POSReady 7 ended on October 11, 2016 (2016-10-11)[4] and extended support ended on October 12, 2021 (2021-10-12).[24] That date marked the final end of extended support for the Windows 7 codebase after more than 12 years. Windows Embedded POSReady 7 was eligible for the paid Extended Security Updates (ESU) program. This service was available viaOEMs, in yearly installments. Security updates were available for the operating system until October 8, 2024.[5][6][7][4] This marked the final end ofIA-32 updates on theWindows NT 6.1 product line after more than 15 years, as well as marking the final end of all support for the Windows Embedded Industry subfamily after more than 19 years.[7][4]

Windows Embedded 8 Industry

[edit]

Based onWindows 8,[25] Windows Embedded 8 Industry was released on April 2, 2013[15][26] and is available in Pro, Pro Retail, and Enterprise editions.[9][10][8] The Pro and Pro Retail editions are only available pre-installed onOEM devices, while the Enterprise edition is available through the volume licensing channel only. The Pro Retail edition adds a few extra features for use inretail environments, while the Enterprise edition provides embedded-specific features designed to integrate seamlessly with Windows 8 Enterprise.Alaska Airlines uses Windows Embedded 8 Industry in-flight entertainment devices.[27] It is unsupported as of January 12, 2016.

Windows Embedded 8.1 Industry

[edit]

Based onWindows 8.1,[25] Windows Embedded 8.1 Industry was released on October 17, 2013, byMicrosoft as a component ofthe operating system itself.[15] As with 8 Industry, it is available in Pro, Pro Retail, and Enterprise editions.[11][12] Windows Embedded 8.1 Industry Update was released on April 16, 2014.[28] Mainstream support for Windows Embedded 8.1 Industry ended on July 10, 2018, and extended support ended on July 11, 2023.[11][12] This marked the final end of "extended support" for the Windows Embedded Industry subfamily after almost 18 years. Unlike with Windows Embedded POSReady 7, however, Windows Embedded 8.1 Industry (along with all other editions of Windows 8.1) was not eligible for the Extended Security Updates (ESU) program, despiteits server counterpart being eligible for ESU.[7]
