I would guess that 9/10 orphaned apps written for Windows 10 years ago will still run and the number would be much lower for Apple, using the latest OSs?

I know Windows allows you to use an "Open as" option too. So say an old orphaned app was written for XP or Win 7 and won't run well, or at all, in Win 10, you can choose to run it as a Win 7 app in Win 10 which allows it to work.
