| Prior to the introduction of the taskbar in [[Windows 95]], minimized windows were represented by icons on the desktop. In [[Windows 1.0]], all open windows tile the screen, while minimized (iconified) windows are shown as icons in the lower part of the screen. The icon area also expands in height if more windows are open than could fit in the area, thus making sure all windows are always accessible unless a single window is maximized (zoomed). The introduction of overlapping windows in [[Windows 2.0]] meant that windows, including minimized window icons could now be covered by any other window, which was later found to result in many users ending up losing track of their open applications, only to launch yet another instance of them, eventually running out of available memory. The rising popularity of [[Windows 3.0]] and [[Windows 3.1]], neither of which did not address the usability issues, lead Microsoft to search for a solution.
| | 在 [[Windows 95]] 中引入任务栏之前，最小化的窗口由桌面上的图标表示。在 [[Windows 1.0]] 中，所有打开的窗口都会平铺屏幕，而最小化（图标化）的窗口在屏幕下部显示为图标。如果打开的窗口数超过该区域所能容纳的窗口数，则图标区域的高度也会扩大，从而确保所有窗口始终可访问，除非单个窗口被最大化（缩放）。在 [[Windows 2.x|Windows 2.0]] 中引入重叠窗口意味着窗口（包括最小化的窗口图标）现在可以被任何其他窗口覆盖，后来发现这会导致许多用户最终失去对打开的应用程序的跟踪，只是启动了另一个实例，最终耗尽了可用内存。日益普及的 [[Windows 3.0]] 和 [[Windows 3.1]]，都没有解决这方面的可用性问题，这导致 Microsoft 寻求解决方案。 |

| At first, the [[Microsoft Cairo|Cairo]] project tried to fix this problem by adjusting the appearance of minimized windows, as the developers believed that the main problem was that users had trouble distinguishing minimized window icons from other kinds of icons. The team therefore came up with wide plates with the window icon and title. The new user interface proposed by the project also included a so-called system tray, which could be either docked to any side of the screen or floating as a window. The tray included three buttons named System, Find and Help on one side, which provided simple access to basic system features, while the remaining area was occupied by a folder view, which functioned as a clipboard for users to drop files they are moving or copying and also included a Wastebasket folder for deleting files.
| | 起初，[[Microsoft Codename Cairo|Cairo]] 项目试图通过调整最小化窗口的外观来解决这个问题，因为开发人员认为主要问题是用户难以区分最小化窗口图标和其他类型的图标。因此，该团队想出了带有窗口图标和标题的宽板。该项目提出的新用户界面还包括一个所谓的系统托盘，它可以停靠在屏幕的任何一侧或作为窗口浮动。托盘的一侧包括三个名为 System（系统）、Find（查找）和 Help（帮助）的按钮，它们提供了对基本系统功能的简单访问，而其余区域则被文件夹视图占据，此视图用作剪贴板，供用户放置他们正在移动或复制的文件，还包括一个用于删除文件的废纸篓文件夹。 |

| The Cairo user interface was later adopted by the Chicago project and included in early builds, such as [[Windows 95 build 58s|build 58s]], however, it turned out to perform nearly as bad as Windows 3.1 during usability testing. The team also worked in parallel on a separate user interface concept called ClearView with the aim to create an alternate shell for beginner users. ClearView used a full screen tabbed interface for launching programs, accessing recently opened documents as well as switching between windows. The tab bar on the top of the screen ultimately became the modern taskbar, with a Start button and buttons representing each window, and was eventually combined with other parts of the Cairo user interface to become the modern Windows shell.
| | Cairo 用户界面后来被 Chicago 项目采用并包含在早期版本中，例如 [[Windows 95 Build 58s|Build 58s]]，但是，在可用性测试期间，它的性能几乎与 Windows 3.1 一样糟糕。该团队还并行开发了一个名为 ClearView 的单独用户界面概念，旨在为初学者用户创建一个替代 shell。ClearView 使用全屏选项卡式界面来启动程序、访问最近打开的文档以及在窗口之间切换。屏幕顶部的选项卡栏最终成为现代任务栏，带有“开始”按钮和代表每个窗口的按钮，并最终与 Cairo 用户界面的其他部分相结合，成为现代 Windows shell。 |
