Windows 1.0 (1985)
On November 20, 1985, Microsoft released the long-awaited Windows 1.0 operating system. It was the first ever graphical operating system for personal computers that was developed by Microsoft. MS Windows 1.0 was a 16-bit operating system with tiled window display and limited multitasking capabilities. However, Windows 1.0 met with rather mixed reactions - according to critics, this operating system did not use its full potential and its system requirements were too demanding. The last Windows 1.0 update was released in April 1987, but Microsoft continued to support it until 2001.
