When installing Windows 3.1 as a retro system, you should never forget to update the file manager to its Y2K-compatible version from 1999. The old, original WINFILE.EXE should not be allowed to touch your files in 2026. 😉

@dfx Did Microsoft release an official patch for Windows 3.1 in 1999 to add Y2K support? That's impressive considering it's around the time of Windows ME & Windows 2000. Or, was this an unofficial community patch?
