Microsoft Windows

Windows XP (2001-2014)
In 2001, Microsoft overhauled the Windows logo again giving it much more of a clean feel. The Windows logo was simplified, removing the black borders and squares flowing behind it. The logo was also given a 'plastic' feel to it. It was created to match Windows XP which had a very clean feel. It used the Franklin Gothic Medium font for the text.

Windows Vista (2006-present)
Microsoft modified their 2001 logo, getting rid of the plastic feel and changing the font to Segoe.

Windows 8 (2012-present)
Microsoft overhauled their logo again to fit in with the new Metro design language on Windows 8, which uses one-color designs and a slightly modified Segoe font. This logo was unveiled on Windows 8 Consumer Preview released February 2012. Instead of using the waved windows design, it uses the real window design, with perspective.

Windows 8.1 (2013-present)


After a year, Microsoft released Windows 8.1 in 2013. This logo has an additional ".1" at the end. It is also slightly less bold, giving a smoother feel.

Windows 10 (2015-present)


Microsoft officially unveiled the first beta version of Windows 10 on September 30, 2014. The text on the wordmark of the logo was unbolded and the logo itself was made a darker shade of blue. The final version of the operating system was released worldwide on July 29, 2015.

Windows 3.0 (1990-2001)
This is a real, real logo, more real than the current logo.

Windows XP - 7 (2001-present)
This is a flat version, with the white version used for Vista beta "Longhorn" in milestone 9 or 10, before the final beta.

Windows 10 (2015-present)
This logo's lines are thinner.
