Microsoft Sam's Classic Windows Errors

**Microsoft Sam's Classic Windows Errors** (commonly abbreviated to MSCWE) is a lightweight version of Microsoft Sam's SUPER Errors & Signs. In the series, Microsoft Sam (or any substitute) reads a series of 10 errors in a format similar to the original MSreas Seasons 1–3 (no backgrounds or reaction windows). It does not feature signs, but it does feature error requests.

This series uses a pure episodic format, although the episodes are informally grouped by 10. Starting on January 27, 2020, the "Decasode" was introduced, featuring 10 of the episodes grouped together into one video, with reaction windows added.

On April 19, 2022, it was announced that starting with the 4x series (or Ep. 41), the series was to receive several changes, including a new name.

## MSCWE0x Series

The series began as "Microsoft Sam reads Classic Windows Errors", and used a seasonal format. The first episode was released on September 3, 2016 in celebration of the 1 year anniversary of MSreas. The original Season 1 concluded with Ep. 4's release on February 21, 2017 to make way for the original run of MSreas Season 5.

On June 24, 2017, the first four episodes were the first videos SamJoe published after the Reformation Declaration of 2017, and were the first sprite-swaps. The official seasonal format was shelved from the title, and the series began being uploaded without a formal multi-episode container. Seasons were somewhat reinstated in the description, but this was ultimately reversed. Together, "Season 1" and "Season 2" comprise the MSCWE0x Series.

"Season 2" started on June 25 with Ep. 5, and it ended with Ep. 10 on September 17.

**Decasode 1** released on January 27, 2020, representing these 10 episodes.
