The SR2 update for Windows 95 introduced a My Documents folder (along with FAT32 support).

Wasn't it possible to store user files in C:/Windows/Profiles/{username}/ , too ?

OSR2 did indeed do that, but it was a later addition. And Windows NT 4 never got My Documents.

I think so, but I don't know if the OS really especially encouraged you to store things there.
