Correct. The NT line caught up with Win95's (Windows v4.0) interface conventions with the release of NT4.0. Both Windows and WindowsNT coexisted until the (welcomed) death of WindowsME(v4.9). There were no v5 Windows releases. NT continued with Windows 2000 (NT5.0), XP (NT5.1), Vista (NT6.0), Windows 7 (NT6.1), 8.0 (NT6.2), 8.1 (NT6.3, it really was Windows9), and Windows 10 (NT6.4).
