“Black and white text has never looked so good,” says Tom Messett from Microsoft Lumia Marketing in the launch video. Watch the video to see glimpses of the new / old OS before deciding if you need to install it on your phone. Mobile MS-DOS goes back to its origins. The main applications are located in C: \ Program Files \ PHONE. You can access it by typing these commands: programs cd cd phone dir Lists all available applications.
