Windows is the operating system from Microsoft. Various versions of Windows make up the majority of operating systems installed on computers around the world. Owing to its popularity among users, the line has been a frequent target for malware, and, especially in consumer editions (even more so in Windows 9x/ME), subject to bugs and security exploits, although some of the latter bugs and exploits can sometimes be attributed to errors or complacency on part of the user. The most popular version of Windows is currently Windows 7, though Windows XP has been popular until recent years, when Microsoft officially retired XP and ceased support for the operating system in April 8, 2014. Windows 8 has caused much criticism for its new Metro interface, which replaces the traditional Explorer interface, for it's overly-simplistic design, low level of personalization and for being more touch-screen oriented. Similar criticism was made on other products that were given the Metro treatment, like Office 2013.

- The first Episode in TheAGKGenerations' AGK Parodies. Leopold wanted to play Unreal Tournament, does his usual routine, and types "Windows XP".

He then rages at Microsoft and repeated what he said, thus giving him enough rage to leave his room.
- Later on in Episode 2, he has planned to install Windows 7. Like noob Windows users, 30 minutes later he got the "Windows not Genuine" notification from Windows and didn't know how to fix it.
- A bit further in Episode 4, he had planned to install Windows 8 but since 8 is simular to 7, he had the same problem, thus letting anger into himself. He leaves again.
