it was as stable as windows 11, but the uac system and other security chnages broke a lot of apps, including some system services. As soon as the apps adapted it became pretty decent.
About the performance, win7 isn’t lighter than vista, vista just came out too early
If Vista was a person, it would be a hot looking drunk tourist that gives you crabs after a one night stand and steals your change bowl when they sneak out in the early morning.
Vista was underrated though.
No. It was a crash test dummy for windows 7.
It was a beta that wasn’t stable.

Windows 11 has been pretty rock solid for me.
Vista was not and working in IT for a long time I saw enough examples of vista to never recommend it.
XP was better at everything until windows 7 came along.
It doesn’t matter how light an OS is if it isn’t stable.
Windows 11 is in its beta phase. Like windows 10 was until 2018.
And 11 is the beta for 12.
Even though it was hated, it was the first successful 64bit OS from Microsoft. XP 64bit edition was terrible. 7 obviously perfected 64bit.
I wouldn’t call vista successful. Windows 7 replaced XP, Vista did not.
Like I said, it was a beta.
It was just doing its job as the ‘every other version of windows is terrible’ sacrifice.

Vista was the warcrimes of OSes
My first laptop ever came with Vista and it’s was so bug ridden and crashed constantly. It was so nice when windows 7 finally came out.

This and Windows 8 and 8.1: either crappy or confusing

At least it wasn’t a virus magnet
It really was though. UAC didn’t actually work until windows 7.
