this feature existed since 1995 if not earlier [in MS Windows]

I distinctly recall this not being a thing in Windows 95. I don't think it was native to the OS until maybe WIndows XP. I'm quite sure Win95, Win98, Win98SE, and Win2000 lacked this abomination of a resource hog and security nightmare (responsible for one of the most famous Linux exploits back when people thought Linux was particularly secure).

But now I've looked it up and it seems Windows 98 introduced this feature (not surprised my memory was bad on this since I never enabled it, or disabled it immediately after any installs if enabled). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_9 ... d_features
