- Who wrote the text for the Ctrl+Alt+Del dialog in Windows 3.1? (devblogs.microsoft.com)
One of the differences between standard-mode Windows and enhanced-mode Windows was what happened when you hit Ctrl+Alt+Del. Since 16-bit Windows applications are co-operatively multi-tasked, it is easy to determine whether the system is responding, and if not, it is also easy to identify the application which is responsible. In that case, Windows gave you options to close the non-responsive application, restart the computer, or cancel.
- Stefanik was born in Albany, New York, on July 2, 1984, to Melanie and Kenneth Stefanik.
- After graduating from Harvard, she joined the George W. Bush administration, as a staff member for the U.S. Domestic Policy Council. Stefanik later worked in the office of Joshua Bolten, the White House Chief of Staff.
- However, on March 27, 2025, Stefanik’s nomination was withdrawn amidst concerns about how her departure from the House would affect the thin House Republican majority.
