Microsoft announced the WinXP system on February 5, 2001, and released the RTM version of the WinXP system on August 24th of that year, which replaced the Win2000 system in 1999, but it was officially launched on October 25th of that year.

Compared with previous systems, WinXP had many innovations in that era, the most important of which was the UI interface, as well as improved performance, faster startup, more stable and, of course, the more classic IE6 browser, which is even more impressive.

For domestic users, many people happen to come into contact with computers and surf the Internet in the WinXP era. The most famous in China are all kinds of Ghost modified XP systems, including tomato garden, rainforest woodwind, etc., and later got into a lawsuit from Microsoft, this kind of magic reform system gradually disappeared, and now only the non-profit version of Win system produced by enthusiasts.

The WinXP system upgraded the SP3 service pack three times between 2002 and 2008, eventually ending the mainstream support in 2009, but by 2014, the extended support had a long life in Microsoft's Win system.

Today, WinXP is no longer mainstream, but it is still not extinct around the world. According to the statistics website Statcounter, it still has a share of 0.59%, more than double the 0.26% of Vista.
