Windows95.com was the go-to online hub in the mid-to-late ’90s for anyone riding the wave of Microsoft’s biggest OS launch ever. After Windows 95 dropped on August 24, 1995, the site wasn’t just a marketing page—it became a central spot for updates, tips, and driver downloads that kept your Packard Bells and Gateways running smooth. As the years went on, it hosted info for Windows 95’s major updates like OSR1 in early 1996 and the more stable OSR2 in 1997, which added FAT32 and better hardware support. Visiting Windows95.com back then felt like you were jacked directly into the future—when the “Start” button was brand new and getting online meant hearing that 56k modem scream.
