cyberjunkie<p>Microsoft discontinued the Winfile project, the file manager from the 90s. </p><p>I did not know this existed till this announcement. Decided to download it and it is more competent and performant than the File Explorer that Windows 10 and 11 ship with!</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/winfile" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>winfile</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>windows</span></a></p>

DesertFOX<p>Im Jahre 1999 veröffentlichte Microsoft einen Haufen kritischer Jahr-2000 Updates und Patches für ihre Software. Aus heutiger Sicht wichtig war v.a. auch der fehlerbereinigte Datei-Manager WINFILE.EXE unter Windows 3.1 und WfW 3.11, der so angepasst auch 2025 noch problemlos funktionert.</p><p>Da ich hierfür endlich auch eine richtige physische Quelle haben wollte, hab ich mir nun mal die offizielle Microsoft Jahr 2000 Ressourcen CD besorgt. Es handelt sich um die finale Version dieser Disc vom November 1999.</p><p>Hier zum Download:<br /><a href="https://archive.org/details/ms_y2k-cd_nov99_german" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">archive.org/details/ms_y2k-cd_</span><span class="invisible">nov99_german</span></a></p><p><a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Microsoft" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Microsoft</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Windows</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Y2K" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Y2K</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Update" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Update</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/WINFILE" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>WINFILE</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/RetroComputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>RetroComputing</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Jahr2000" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Jahr2000</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/WfW311" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>WfW311</span></a></p>
