I believe that is inaccurate. Windows 1.0 was, in fact, released to market. It was not terribly popular - and I don't even think one could argue it rips Mac OS too much. Just Google for some screenshots - if Win1 was, in fact, meant to emulate Mac OS, it did so QUITE poorly.

True, however even Windows 1.0 only had File and View - no Edit menu. Consequently, it seems unlikely that Microsoft developed that paradigm.
I'm seeing File/Edit/View in the very first version of Mac OS.
