So what happens if a final judgement is not entered and Microsoft deals before? Res judicata would not apply would it hypothetically? It would technically not be valid.

First, the party must show that a final judgment on the merits of the case had been entered by a court having jurisdiction over the matter. This means that a final decision in the first lawsuit was based on the factual and legal disputes between the parties rather than a procedural defect, such as the failure to serve the defendant with legal process.
