autoexec.bat and config.sys

That’s where the magic happened.

I hope there weren't children in the room. LOL! Man, this is giving me flashbacks. I started on an old IBM 286 clone that had to boot off of 5.25" floppies. Made a 20 year+ living in IT out of it.

Reminds me of the old joke, "What do you get when you cross Lee Iacocca with a vampire? autoexec.bat"

Yeah, .ini and .pif files too. It used to be pretty easy to edit restrictions on programs.
