Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

Nonmobile client operating systems are used on personal computers. The most popular is Microsoft Windows. Some version of Windows resides on more than 85 percent of the world's desktops, and, if just business users are considered, the figure is more than 95 percent. The most recent client version of Windows is Windows 10, a major rewrite of prior versions. Windows 8 was distinguished by what Microsoft calls modern-style applications. These applications, now carried over into Windows 10, are touch-screen oriented and provide context-sensitive, pop-up menus. They can also be used with a mouse and keyboard. Microsoft claims that modern-style applications work just as well on portable, mobile devices such as tablet computers as they do on desktop computers. One key feature of modern-style applications is the minimization of menu bars, status lines, and other visual overhead.
