The New Executable (NE or NewEXE) is a 16-bitexecutablefile format, a successor to the DOS MZ executable format. It was used in Windows 1.0–3.x, Windows 9x, multitasking MS-DOS 4.0, OS/2 1.x, and the OS/2 subset of Windows NT up to version 5.0 (Windows 2000). An NE is also called a segmented executable. It utilizes the 16-bit protected mode or unreal mode, and it can be 16-bit and 32-bit hybrid.
