Windows Vista II

Windows Vista II is a Windows operating system that was developed on July 2, 2010, and was released to the public on January 30, 2011. It is built on the same kernel used with Windows 7.
Windows Vista II was an operating system that Microsoft said: "The new era, right in front of your eyes."
Microsoft in 2009 said that they wanted to revive the old Windows Vista, which also signaled the new era of Windows in 2007.
Customer satisfaction was very high, and almost 75.2 percent of the Windows computers were running Vista II during the Microsoft Windows Census of the year 2011.
The revival of the whole Windows Vista series was critically and pleasantly welcomed by most tech critics. Technology reviewers and experts commented on Windows Vista II as an "....operating system that came at the right time.," due to the fact that most of Windows users were using Windows XP-compatible computers at that time.
The Windows Vista "Revived" series continues to grow, with the latest one being Windows Vista III, which is set to be released in the year 2020.
Microsoft has reported that Windows XP users will also get to experience a "revival series" although this remains uncertain.
Microsoft also apologized for some of the mistakes of the build numbers, as a man-made error was made by some developers.
Microsoft reports that this is a new Windows Build scheme. And a Windows Insider reported that: "We highly do not accept this as confusion over build numbers will significantly rise."
Microsoft has said that this is a man-made error and a patch was released to prevent the computer from being confused while updating to a new OS.
Mainstream support ended on April 10, 2016, and extended support ends on April 11, 2021. Microsoft recommends users to upgrade to a modern OS like Windows 10 or Windows Vista III.
As of May 2020, Windows Vista II is still used on 30% of computers worldwide.
