I could be wrong , but I think that Windows supported a portion of the DesqView API.
Which means, that DesqView-friendly DOS applications ran a bit better on Windows, too.

I don't think so. got any links to documentation back your assertion up at all?

He has it backwards

If you already had Windows Desqview could assist with mixing and matching those programs as well

In so far as deskview aware apps running better under Windows that wasn’t the case unless you already had Desqview

Thank you.

Never mind. I was thinking of a Win 3.x add-on named "Zähmen" (means taming).
It emulated DESQView functions.

I get this on that link :

Right, sorry about that. Found the culprit. There has to be a slash at the end of the link, apparently.

What's strange, though. Google Translator displays a 404 error. 😕

I attach a screen shot hence.

Well, that is helpful.
