>Which confirms what I have written many times, but many people didn't believe me. A consequence of this is that Visual Foxpro applications will continue to work for a very, very long time.

What you have written is that Windows 10 will be the last version of Windows and concluded from that (as repeated above) that "...FoxPro applications will continue to work for a very long time ...". This conclusion is what some people, myself included, disagree with.

Windows 10 is the "last version" only in terms of MS not building a new OS every few years and selling it as a complete, shrink wrapped, packaged OS. It is the "last version" in name only. Instead of making a new Windows version every few years, Windows 10 will continue to be developed on a continuous basis and updates released via Windows Update or some other similar mechanism. This makes business sense because MS move away from trying to convince users to buy a new OS every 3 or 4 years (which gets progressively harder to do) to getting them to pay an automatic annual subscription fee for continuous updates much like subscribing to AV or similar services. They move from selling a product to selling a service.

And because of the above, the conclusion you make that FoxPro "will continue to work for a very long time ..." is therefore debatable. If the OS will be continuously developed/enhanced/changed one cannot guarantee that FoxPro will continue to be supported or work. And because the OS will be continuously developed/enhanced/changed it is the "last version" in name only, not in actuality.
