if (osName.startsWith("windows 9"))
Notice the "startsWith" function. It has nothing to do with "Windows 9" and everything to do with Windows 95 and 98

Yes, and "Windows 9" starts with "Windows 9". So the function will see that, "yep, the string's there" and throw it down the path of handling antique versions of windows.

Do you know what "startsWith" does? It checks if the string starts with a given string.
"Windows 9", "Windows 95", and "Windows 98" all start with "Windows 9".
