Microsoft confuses followers by releasing ‘all new’ Windows 1.0

Microsoft transformed into the 1985 version of itself across social media on Monday when Windows posted a throw back video showing off the very first Windows 1.0.

“Introducing the all-new Windows 1.0, with MS-Dos Executive, Clock, and more!” the company teased in a tweet.

While the move confused everyone, the account played along, replying to comments in 80s style language and changing its online aesthetic.

Windows also tweeted another throwback in the form of several Microsoft programs, including Flight Simulator.

The company is yet to relieve the internet of confusion and explain what the time travelling marketing is really all about.
