  • Article

This document builds on the concepts embodied in the Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 Application Compatibility Cookbook (https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/bb757005.aspx) and the Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 Application Quality Cookbook (https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/dd371778(v=VS.85).aspx). Like them, this document provides developers with the means to become familiar with how to verify the compatibility of their apps with the new operating system and provides an overview of the few known application incompatibility issues in Windows and Windows Server Developer Preview. The Cookbook contains more than two dozen topics divided into two major sections:

  • General Compatibility
  • New Features and Enhancements

We invite you to check out these topics to learn how to optimize your apps to take advantage of what this newest release of Windows has to offer.
