If you're using Windows 98 or Windows Millenium, I'd go with either Internet Explorer 5.5 SP2 or Internet Explorer 6. Windows 98 includes Active Desktop. Installing Internet Explorer 4.0 SP2 first on Windows 95 or Windows NT 4.0 SP6 is necessary in order to use DOSBox as it requires the Active Desktop component.
ppgrainbow Posted May 1, 2017 Author Posted May 1, 2017 Moving on... MoFooter 0.9.6q is known to work with Windows 95! Anyone got a link to the latest version of Mo-Footer? By the way, if you have found anymore software or hardware that either still supports Windows 95 or used to support Windows 95 in the past, please post them here.

Well go to this page: http://blog.livedoor.jp/blackwingcat/archives/1394816.html find on it the link "v0.9.6q": http://w2k.flxsrv.org/cgi-bin/dl.cgi?file=mftr096q.cab and click on it, the "Bad Gateway" error should mean that you need to have the BlackWingCat page as referrer (or something like that). jaclaz

What I had to do was to download the previous version MoFooter 0.9.6p and it did download.

Ow come on, that is a sort of "sticky" of trhe Bad Gateway you had before, the 0.96q downloads just fine here (if coming from BlackWingCat page), try clearing browser cache or use another browser, anyway I am attaching it. jaclaz mftr096q.cab

I'm going to reduce the maximum size of the cache to 1 GB on my SeaMonkey 2.48b1 browser to see if this fixes the issue.
ppgrainbow Posted June 22, 2018 Author Posted June 22, 2018 Here is what I found out. I used to run Cygwin on operating systems such as Windows 95, Windows 98 and even Windows 2000 - only to find that Cygwin dropped support for these old OSes. The last version of Cygwin that supported Windows 95 as well as Windows 98 and Windows Millennium edition was Cygwin 1.5_25. Cygwin 1.7 was released at the end of 2009 and its DLLs won't even run on these OSes. Anyone have a copy of Cygwin 1.5_25? As far as I know, if Cygwin was installed again on these unsupported OSes, I have a concern that the current repos used to install software under an older version of Cygwin might not work correctly, if not at all.

ppgrainbow Posted June 27, 2018 Author Posted June 27, 2018 (edited) Checking the system requirements page of AbiWord version 2.4.6 is the last version to support Windows 95 as well as Windows NT 4.0, Windows 98 and Windows Me: https://www.abisource.com/support/require/ AbiWord 2.9.4 is the last version to be built on the Windows platform. Windows support was dropped in version 3 due to lack of Windows developers. Edited June 27, 2018 by ppgrainbow
