Elementary school, Windows 3.x era.

School district thought they blocked access to the built-in OS games.

Nope, from any program (Wordpad, etc) you could FILE -> OPEN to find/launch/play Minesweeper.

Nothing makes an 8-year-old feel more like a "hacker" than subverting school controls to play video games, while also gaining cred with your friends.

The good ol' days.
