Microsoft Works for Windows, v3.0b from late 1994, was the very last version of Works designed to run on Windows 3.1 before Windows 95 showed up and changed everything. And, up until today, I was never able to find a working, German language set of floppy disks for it. Oh, well. I just found it, installed it successfully... and it's glorious! Yes, I know I am a little weird. Have a nice day! 😜

@dfx The existence of MS Works always confused me. Why maintain two completely separate products which competed with one another instead of just offering a cut-down version of MS Office?

@dfx very nice! I live the effort you put into finding all releases of different software products. Thanks for that!
