I may think it was introduced in 5.0 because I was using multiple
environments.  Come to think of it, I think back in my 5.0 days I was still
doing that with batch files, like...
 
TOxxx.BAT - prepare the system to run xxx by backing up the current
AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS, copying the ones for xxx into place, and then
reboot the system.
 
TODV.BAT - prepare the system to work as normal by backing up, copying the
normal files used with Desqview into place, and rebooting.
 
So I am sure you (and the internet) are likely correct.  ;)
 
BTW, 'xxx' was most often, but not always, SimCity 2000.  ;)
