'''Windows 1.0''', also known as '''Microsoft Windows''' or simply '''Windows''', is the first iteration of the [[Windows]] product line by [[Microsoft]].
 
Windows 1.0 was labeled the “Premiere Edition”. It was compiled on July 30, 1985, but wasn't for sale. It was released to reviewers and to retail outlets to demonstrate.
 
Windows 1.0 was a [[mouse]]-controlled graphic user interface rather than an [[operating system]].
 
==Versions==
Windows 1.0, 1.01, the international-exclusive 1.02, 1.03, and the [[IBM]] [[PS/2]] compatible 1.04 were restricted to the 16-bit architecture of [[DOS]] as they relied on the DOS [[operating system]] for essential functions.
 
==Compatibility==
Applications created with these versions were compatible with [[Windows 2.x|Windows 2]] but weren't compatible with [[Windows 3.x|Windows 3]] and higher operating systems due to the lack of protected mode.
