Windows does have three libc, likely as a compability layer. their names are:
* <forgotten something Windows 3.1>
* msvcrt.dll, 2014
* ucrt.dll (universal c runtime, since Windows 10)Windows does have three libc, likely as a compability layer. their names are:

Those are not a compatibility layer with the OS. Heck, the all barely even provide proper access to the file system, ffs! The "msvcrt.dll" in the System32 folder is an ancient leftover from Microsoft-internal version of MSVC 6.0 or so, not intended for 3rd-party consumption.
At some point Microsoft got tired of maintaining binary-incompatible versions of its C runtime for different Visual Studios, so they started shipping UCRT with Windows itself... but you still don't need to touch that garbage for anything whatsoever.
