Don't quote me on this but i recall seeing something a while back about how a significant part of the windows kernel was already ported to rust. The windows kernel has been fairly decoupled from the UI layer for a while, that was one of the big efforts in the 8.1 and 10 versions: to have a core that xbox, phone, and desktop could all share.
Huh, it looks like Windows 11 is including Rust to some degree in the kernel. I wonder how far they'll take it.
