Development Release #2 is an early pre-release build of the Microsoft Windows operating system, compiled sometime in late June 1984. Like the previous build, it was demonstrated on the Tandy 2000 personal computer.
Overview
For some reason, the Clipboard application has been removed in this build. It was later re-added in the next build.
Just like the previous build, this build was launched from a file called DEMO.BAT. It also still uses the .MOD extension as the main executable format.
