It also has support for native [[64-bit]] environments. It is an upgrade but not replacement for versions 3 and 4 as they still provide legacy features not supported in version 6. Version 6, 4, and 3 may all be installed and running concurrently. MSXML 6 is not supported on [[Windows 9x]]. Windows XP SP3 includes MSXML 6.0 SP2.
* '''MSXML 5.0''' MSXML5 is a binary developed specifically for [[Microsoft Office]]. It originally shipped with Office 2003 and also ships with [[Office 2007]].
