Softdisk for Windows was a monthly disk magazine that was put out by Softdisk Publishing from 1994 through 1999, as a spinoff from their earlier DOS-based Softdisk PC publication (originally Big Blue Disk).^[1] It was launched due to the increasing popularity of the Microsoft Windows operating system in the 1990s, and outlasted the DOS-based diskmagazine by about a year before also ending publication as a result of the Internet taking over from disks as the most common means of obtaining software and computer-related information.
