Windows Embedded Compact（以前称为 Windows CE，CE 代表紧凑型版（Compact Edition）或消费电子产品（Consumer Electronics））是 Microsoft 的实时嵌入式操作系统。作为 Windows Embedded 平台的一部分，Windows CE 设计用于手持计算机或内存和资源有限的系统。
系统内核和库用于 Windows Mobile 及其后续版本 Windows Phone，后者专为智能手机和掌上电脑设计，以及用于 Sega Dreamcast 视频游戏控制台的运行时库。随着 Windows Phone 8 的发布，Windows CE 架构被放弃，选择使用 NT 内核作为 MinWin 架构的一部分。
History
Early versions of Windows CE were inspired by the Microsoft WinPad operating system, a scrapped mobile platform for handheld PCs based on the 16-bit Windows family. Versions of WinPad can be found in various Windows 3.1 SDKs. It is also included in early development builds of Windows 95 up till build 275.
