First of all "Windows" itself doesn't mean an OS. You can argue that OSes have generic GUI windows, but Microsoft is not suing to prevent Gnome from calling itself a window manager with application windows. "Windows" is a trademark for an operating system.

Well, store doesn't really mean only physical stores right? There are a bunch of online shops calling themselves stores from the 90s.
