First available in stores and the general public on November 20, 1985, Windows 1.01 was the retail version of Windows 1.0. It was eventually retired on December 31, 2001. Rather than being a stand-alone operating system, Microsoft claims that Windows 1.01 is a "Operating Environment" meant to operate on top of MS-DOS. A word processor called Write, a graphical design software called Paint, a rather fun game called Reversi, and a number of utilities including a calculator, calendar, a notepad, and clock were among the other programs that were along with Windows.
