How is Windows programming different from NET programming?

In Windows Programming the application programs call windows API function directly. The applications run in the windows environment i.e. operating system itself. These types of applications are called unmanaged or unsafe applications.In .NET Programmingthe application programs call .Net Base Class library functions which will communicate with operating system. The applications run in .Net Runtime environment. These types of applications are called as managed or safe applications. The .Net Runtime starts code execution, manages threads, provides services, manages memory etc. The detailed description is provided in next section. The .Net Base classes are fully object-oriented.

Is it safe to use open source software with Microsoft Windows?

They are 2 different things, not compatible in nature. However, you can have a project to have iOS, Windows, Linux, etc all running under your new open source operating system, then the answer may be yes.

(if there is any, it is accidental, and Microsoft may take that away in the future)

What operating system was used before Microsoft was invented?

hi, First of all let me tell you one thing that before Microsoft there was very little scope for personal computers and softwares related to those computers. Still there were some softwares and software building programming languages. FORTRAN or formula translation, the first high level programming language, was invented by John Backus for IBM, in 1954, and released commercially, in 1957. It is still used today for programming scientific and mathematical applications. Fortran began as a digital code interpreter for the IBM 701 and was originally named Speedcoding. John Backus wanted a programming language closer to human language, which is the definition of a high level language. At that time the softwares available were Aldus Pagemaker, Trillian, Wordstar, Computer Chess, VisiCalc Spreadsheet. WordStar - The First Word Processor Released in 1979 by Micropro International, WordStar was the first commercially successful word processing software program produced for microcomputers and the best selling software program of the early eighties. first desktop publishing program was created by Paul Brainard and a company called Aldus, the program called "Aldus Pagemaker 1.0" was released in July, 1985 for the "Macintosh" and in December, 1986, for the "IBM".
