This article is only about the software itself and nothing more. If you want to cover emulation, you should create a separate page for it, and list each Windows version there.)

This early pre-release version of Microsoft Windows 1.0 was shipped to testers in January 1985.

NOTE: This article needs expansion.

Machine requirements
