Wait, it’s still alive???
It’s been running stuff like ATMs for years. And probably still will.
That and os/2 warp. Amazing.
Well yeah, that much I know, but i thought it was unsupported. I always saw it as that weird version of windows 98 or XP for really small stuff

Used by Crestron Electronics for their 3-Series products. Not all are discontinued…
This was my immediate though lol. I’m still running some 3 series in my house. CP3 for testing and a PMC3 in my living room.
Voting machines …
I’m not sure about ATMs, they often ran OS/2.
Windows CE often ran media centres or UI panels in things like John Deere tractors or the Fiat 500.
It was also the OS that ran the Dreamcasts UI.
Or XP Embedded.
From my own experience, I’ve also seen it on price checkers (Kmart Australia), navigation devices (Navman GPS units) and older Clarion head units.
We still use that shit at work on our barcode scanners
Though I’m not sure if it’s still technically “Windows ce” or Windows mobile
It was heavily used on barcode scanning devices. I had my first few programming jobs using them.
I still see some of them around.
Good riddance!!
Barcode scanners is what popped into my head reading the title.
