Windows 95 – now an app that can run on Windows, Linux, and macOS It was the world’s first commercially viable operating system aimed at a broad range of people, not just geeky hobbyists or professionals in what was at the time considered the biggest emerging industry.īoomer, or even Millennial, it does not matter if you happen to get the nostalgia buzz when hearing about Windows 95, then you’ll be very happy to hear that someone has made the old-school OS into an app. If you no longer wish to use Windows 95, delete the folder.Originally code named “Chicago,” Windows 95 is arguably the world’s most important OS of all time, with experts of the time calling it “a quantum leap in difference in technological capability and stability.”
Windows 95 is portable, so extract all of the files anywhere you like and double-click on Windows95 in the folder.

We don't know where we found the word Quadranscentennial, but we did, so there it is. We also think that the new generation of computer users will enjoy seeing what Windows used to be as it approaches the Quadranscentennial celebration. We considered Windows 95 a three-year-plus beta of Windows 98SE when Microsoft finally got it "right." Of course, many of us recall reinstalling Windows 95 repeatedly, especially if you are (or were) a gamer.
You can relive the good old days (yes, 1995 is the good old days) with this bit of nostalgic software that can be run on multiple operating systems, including Windows 10, etc. Windows 95 brings you back to 1995, allowing you to run Windows 95 as a portable app without needing for installation, partitioning, or dual booting.
