Windows 93 is what became Windows 95.

To counter the downvotes from people who are certain there was no β€œWin93”, here are two internal MSFT emails referring to the same, in clear reference to what ended up being Win95.

Nah, I don't think so, Windows 95 was codenamed Chicago before it was released. I can't remember ever having seen the name "Windows 93" mentioned in that time.

I remember people talking about Windows 97 before 1998 rolled around.

Source?

I thought they had some design ideas in a later cancelled OS called Cairo, then they had a release codenamed Chicago which ported some ideas but dramatically scaled back, and that was Win95.
