Actually, from what I can tell in my brief 15-minute internet search, every version of Windows since NT has accepted both because DOS 2.0 supported both. The exception to this was Command Prompt. But, these days, it supports both. Not sure when they made that change in Command Prompt, but I think it's been that way since at least Windows 7.
Sadly, I had the great displeasure of writing code for Windows (and DOS) well before then.
