Windows 93 (1993)

For other uses, see Windows 93
Windows 93, codenamed Doodlebug, was an OS name that was considered for Windows 95. The OS would've been released on March 1, 1993, and would've ended support on December 31, 2001.
The OS was very similar to Windows 3.1, but with some minor changes, including a very early version of the Start button and menu, a very early version of 32-bit mode support, and Internet functionality similar to that of Windows for Workgroups 3.1.
Doodlebug was sent with the name Windows 93 by August 1992 and was then planned to come out by March 1993. 93 was then introduced into the Chicago project in December 1992, and it was intended that Windows 93 be the release name of Chicago. After a while of Microsoft troubleshooting in March, April, May, and June 1993, Windows 93's name was canned in July 1993 for the new name Windows 94, which itself was shelved for Windows 95 by September 1994.
