This is plain wrong and shows you don't know at all what is going on. It is 
clear you have no understanding of even the basics of what an operating 
system does or how it does it, and certainly not what any Windows operating 
system does or does not do.  In fact, you seem to have serious 
misconconceptions that show you know nothing about the topic making it 
impossible to explain it in a newsgroup.  If you are at all interested in 
the topic, I can only recommend you learn about it first.

This is after all not a matter of opinion but of the most basic facts.
