Each pane has a bright saturated colour (top-left orange-red, top-right green, bottom-left blue, bottom-right yellow) with subtle highlights, inner bevel and a soft drop shadow that lifts the mark from the white background.

The mark is rendered with a slight 3D / skeuomorphic effect (gradients and highlights) and rounded corners; no legible wordmark is clearly visible within the cropped image provided.

Microsoft Windows Logo History

Microsoft Windows is a family of operating systems by Microsoft, first released in 1985. The multicoloured four-pane 'flag/window' motif has been a longtime element of Windows branding; this glossy, wavy 3D variant was used prominently in Windows marketing and packaging in the 2000s era.

Frequently asked
