Windows Neptune is a version of Microsoft Windows that was not released. It was planned to be a home editon of Windows 2000 because Windows 2000 was released as a business and power user edition. Creation of Windows Neptune ended in January 2000. It is not known if Microsoft ever wanted to release it. After development was ended, some of the features of it, was transfered to "Whistler", later known as Windows XP.

Only two known versions of Windows Neptune exist. Windows Neptune Build 5000, which was released to very few people and Windows Neptune Build 5111, which is very common on the Internet.
