In Windows NT 4.0, a subsystem is a component that provides a specific interface for applications to interact with the operating system's kernel. Each subsystem allows applications designed for different environments, such as Windows GUI or POSIX, to run on NT by translating their system calls into a format that the kernel can understand. Notably, the Windows NT 4.0 architecture includes multiple subsystems, enabling compatibility with various types of applications, thus enhancing its versatility and functionality.
The Win32 subsystem is the native environment of Windows 2000. It processes all 32-bit applications. It provides text window support, shutdown, and hard-error handling for all subsystems. Applications created for Windows NT, Windows 95, and Windows 98 are also run on the Win32 subsystem.
