Windows 95 CD-ROM "Extras"
There is "extra" software available on the Windows 95 Upgrade CD-ROM. But you don't have to buy that CD-ROM to get the software on it.
Microsoft makes it available to you to download online.

As Microsoft updated their Web site over the years, since Windows 95 was released, it changed, more than once, the location of the files listed here. So we have changed this page, keeping the list of available software, but giving you links to the Microsoft Web site where you will find the links to download these files and more.


      • If You Installed Win95 From Floppy Disks:
        Use this page to find the ware of interest to you.
      • If You Installed Win95 from CD-ROM:
        Check this list to make sure you have everything you want installed.
If you are using Windows 98, these files point the way to features and programs you may not know exist!! BUT don't install the Win95 versions you find here! Look for them in Windows 98, or on your Win98 CD-ROM instead.
