2 years ago While this is a cool app, it runs very poorly on the pi. Running windows 95/98 in qemu is much faster although a bit harder to set up. I made bash scripts to create windows 98 and macos 9.2 vms on the pi using qemu, I haven't tested them in a very long time, but they should work. Running windows 95 in qemu should be pretty easy.

2 years ago I agree with Itai-Nelken, while a cool feat from a technical standpoint, running Win95 fully inside javascript and electron is a BAD way to get a useable experience on a low powered embedded system like the pi.
if someone makes a fully contained QEMU powered or other emulator driven win95 app, that would be better

2 years ago Also wanted to mention that back when I tried PINN (An OS-switcher alternative to NOOBS), there was an image that would boot to a dedicated Win98 QEMU VM. Compared to my previous attempts to get a VM working, I noticed this particular VM was surprisingly snappy and responsive, given the same hardware. It might have even had networking set up - not sure.
It has been a long time and right now I don't have time to investigate further. I have a lot of personal matters to attend to at this time, so the time that I have will be mostly be spent on maintenance.
