Windows 2.0 was planned since at least April 1985 and started development shortly after the completion of [[Windows 1.01]]. The initial plan was for a point release, version 1.1. One of the primary complaints from those who used Windows 1.0 was the tiled window management, which many users found confusing. To solve this, support for overlapping all kinds of windows was introduced (up to this point, only dialog boxes could overlap other windows). This was toggleable at first, but the option was then removed entirely as the environment moved to overlapping windows exclusively. | Windows 2.0 was planned since at least April 1985 and started development shortly after the completion of [[Windows 1.01]].
