Why does DOS use 8.3 Filenames? [Byte Size] | Nostalgia Nerd
Back with another Byte size and another question; Ever wondered why DOS used short file names? Otherwise known as the 8.3 filename format. Further to that, do you want to know how we moved from these short file names to long file names with Windows '95? If so, then this is the episode for you.
I'll be discussing, Windows NT, and the NTFS file system. FAT, Root directories, FAT16, FAT12.. even FAT8! There's a face of Bill Gates & Marc McDonald of Microsoft, along with Tim Patterson of Seattle Computer Products, as we delve into BASIC-86 and even 86 DOS, before Microsoft bought the rights back and made it into the short file name operating system of glory it became.
