The Windows 1.0 1983-11-01 build is an early pre-release build of Windows 1.0, very similar to the Fall COMDEX build. A photo was found on Raimund Vollmer's blog covering various topics and photos, where it was posted on 22 October 2009 after Windows 7 was released.[1] Vollmer later shared two other photos from his collection after an inquiry by community members. According to Vollmer, the photos came as a part of an official Microsoft press release.
The status bar at the top of the screen contains the following string: Microsoft Windows Version 1.00 (11/1/83). A similar string can be observed in photos of the 1983-11-20 build and likely indicates when the build was compiled.
