It integrated the ability to run 32-bit applications similar to Windows NT or Windows 3.1 with Win32s. And it included the same networking abilities as Windows for Workgroups. It also included a new way of finding installed applications through a 'Start' menu. We support operating systems that not even Microsoft and Apple themselves support anymore, such as macOS X on PowerPC Macs, and RetroArch being available on Windows OSes as far back as Windows 95.Windows 95 offered, at long last, a well designed document-oriented desktop shell that worked much like the 1984 Macintosh Finder.
