Information About

Program Manager




Program Manager was the Shell of Windows 3.x and Windows NT 3.x Operating System s. This shell exposed a task-oriented Graphical User Interface (GUI), consisting of '' Icon s'' ( Shortcut s for programs) arranged into ''program groups''. The user-friendly interface replaced the file-oriented shells of previous Microsoft operating systems, and enabled non-technical users to run their computers without seeking technical assistance.

In later versions of Service Pack 2, PROGMAN.EXE has been replaced by a dummy (icon library) that does nothing.
