Detailed explanation-1: -Windows 3.1 (codenamed Janus) is a series of 16-bit GUI operating environments for MS-DOS developed by Microsoft for use on personal computers. The series began with Windows 3.1, which was released on April 6, 1992 as a successor to Windows 3.0.
Detailed explanation-2: -The first version of Windows for Workgroups, 3.1, was released on October 27, 1992.
Detailed explanation-3: -Windows 3.0 is the third major release of Microsoft Windows, launched in 1990. It features a new graphical user interface (GUI) where applications are represented as clickable icons, as opposed to the list of file names seen in its predecessors.
Detailed explanation-4: -Windows 7 is an operating system that Microsoft has produced for use on personal computers. It is the follow-up to the Windows Vista Operating System, which was released in 2006. The Desktop is the main Windows 7 screen (see image below). It is the work area where dialog boxes, windows, icons, and menus appear.
Detailed explanation-5: -Windows 95 was the first 32-bit Windows operating system and a major upgrade from Windows 3.1. It used an entirely different user interface that incorporated the now-common Start menu and Taskbar. It was also the first time the computer booted directly into Windows, rather than being loaded after booting up in DOS.
