So I know that stars have habitable zones where, when you get to a certain distance, a planet within this zone is in a comfortable position to host life. But do all stars have this habitable zone or does the certain nature of stars get rid of the possibility of a habitable zone?

Binary star systems of particular types or distances, which are estimated to be 50% of the galaxy’s star population, can easily have non-habitability, because they’d sweep any planet out of such an orbital zone or would have intolerable ranges of solar radiation.
