Gpt4o the windows expert:
“ The meme references a somewhat obscure feature from older versions of Microsoft Windows called “Briefcase.” Here’s a brief explanation:
Windows Briefcase:
• Introduced in Windows 95 and present in several subsequent versions, the Briefcase was a special folder designed to help users keep files in sync between two locations, typically between a desktop and a laptop.
• You could create a Briefcase on your computer, add files to it, and then copy that Briefcase to another location, such as a floppy disk or another drive.
• When you made changes to the files on either location, you could use the Briefcase to update the files on both sides by synchronizing them. This feature was particularly useful in the era before widespread use of networked file sharing and cloud storage.
The meme humorously challenges a supposed “Windows expert” to explain this somewhat outdated and lesser-known feature, implying that true expertise includes knowledge of such old functionalities.”
OP specifically said "no cheating"!
I didn’t say i had the answer. just passed it on :)
For all i personally know this answer is completely made up, as is the danger with ai experts.
Oh nooooo!!! A cheater good lord what is going to happen to them. How will they ever find peace knowing they've committed the worst of crimes.
Dang so it was sneakernet dropbox for Windows 95? That's honestly sick.
