Do you suggest to kick out `IS_WINXP` and `IS_WINVISTA` in > this PR or better do it as a follow up ? I suggest removing `IS_WINXP` together with `IS_WIN2000`. Removing `IS_WINVISTA` could lead to modifying more files, so I think it's better to do it separately. Still, it is safe to assume `IS_WINVISTA` is always `true` these days. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/31676#issuecomment-4810662954
