Forget Apple, embrace your inner PC nerd with these Microsoft mastery challenges
SHARE

Apple has been pretty low-key about it, but the behemoth brand turned 50 this week. Just kidding, they threw some epic parties to celebrate. While Microsoft doesn’t have a big milestone in the calendar (it already celebrated its own half-century last year), we didn’t want it to feel left out, so have put together some challenges for you, Microsoft fans.

So whether your favorite era was Windows 98 with wobbly Word Art headings on every doc and the little paper clip guy offering a cheerful wave, or you’re a slick Windows 11 upgrader (with or without Copilot), take a moment to prove your PC prowess with the quizzes below, which we’ve built especially for you.

Windows 10 crossword

If the multiple choice quiz wasn’t enough of a challenge, this crossword is a little more niche, in my opinion. I never knew the name of 9 down, so I’ve learned certainly something today!
