Windows 95 Interactive Demo
Socials and merch @ www.windowsonwindows.com
In the months before the release of Windows 95, Microsoft distributed the so-called Windows 95 Interactive Demo as a 3.5" floppy disk, or CD-ROM, in various PC magazines. It contained an interactive guide showcasing 95’s new features, plus the ability for users to check their hardware and software compatibility with 95. In this video, I take a look at the 3.5" floppy disk version of the Windows 95 Interactive Demo.
With thanks to @BlueOSMuseum for the Windows 95 launch footage used.

2:11 is that michaelmjd's voice? 😮
Among many things with win8, scrapping the stratup sound was one of the greatest of betrayals.
When is the development of Windows Me (codename Millennium) will be uploaded?
xp=1.5 gigs vista=7 gigs!
want aero glass back !!
Fripp and Eno's are the best.
It wasnt the longest gap between windows because the gap of win10 and win11 is bigger
Very nice, it's like a developer's conference of the system in modern times.
👾
Windows XP is the most nostalgic for me but 95 is my favorite. It just feels exactly akin to one’s first steps into new world of advanced and optimistic technical achievement. So tranquil and inviting. I just wish I could submerge into that sound like i am walking into a pool.
1:37 I like to call the sound file: The Microsoft Sound: variant_NT.wav
its very frutiger aero🌐🍂🐠
I wish Microsoft kept the start screen
Who's here after Windows 95 build 07200022 got leaked
Bro fell off
"Windows nt4 was the 3rd release of Windows nt" Would it kill them to just number things correctly?
The first entry was definitely cursed indeed. Especially considering that Microsoft Anna (the voice at 1:45 was replaced with Microsoft David in Build 7997). It is possible to get this voice back on modern Windows versions thanks to a 3rd party solution that acts as a sort of patch.
Can’t decide which one I like better: Eno or Fripp, so I choose both
The Windows ME startup sound always reminded me of the beginning of Against All Odds by Phil Collins. I'm surprised no one's made a side-by-side comparison video.
The last time I saw Windows 8.1 in use was in early 2020 at my community college. Since then, Windows 8.x has been a distant memory to me.
Longhorn's last pre-reset, does that mean it's the last build that doesn't require SATA?
There is something I am very curious about: BioShock: Infinite is a game, where the minimum operating system requirement is Windows Vista, which means that it cannot be run in Windows XP, but it can be run in Windows Longhorn build 6.0.4093, which is the very last pre-reset version? As you know, pre-reset means that it is based on Windows XP.
How would Bill Gates react?
Aero ❤
I really wish they would bring back the old Aero glass interface
Double tap a comment to like it! Try it!
Vista = Virus Inside - Switch To Archlinux 😂
95 comes in first place as my favorite startup sound 98 comes a close second XP takes the third spot for sure.
ADA INDONESIA COYY 🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩
oh btw winfdows 10 is ending support in a year
Win 3.0a MME was my First PC, but it was a B00tlEgg copy. on a 286 w/ a sound card. The Call LEtters are Probably why I Like WinME as Well lol
How long is Eno's sound in actually? He claims "Three seconds and a third, to be precise."
jaja me espere una tesis de 1 horas minimo para este video y sali estafado 😂😂😂😂😂😂
The Blue Screen Of Death Was Eerie!
Windows Longhorn is not Vista. its a separate project. the name was reused in Vista builds startiong with build 5048 and last been used in build 5112
some of the loghorn design did come over but quickly been replaced by Vista elements
Windows longhorn is vista stop with lies 😑
Windows 11 doesnt exist
BOY WHAT THE FVCK DO YOU MEEN 😒 🙄 😑
since Windows 95
Matthew also composed NT 5.0 Beta's startup sound. Yes, that one which starts out really loud according to quite a few fella here, and ends up with a really sweet, techie melody. Some may not know how I know that, but I found the composer's name of that startup sound tagged with the original file while trying out the NT 5.0 Beta's.
2:25 I looked for the Windows 2000 video and it’s not there. Where can I find it?
I heard music from inanimate insanity season 2 at the beginning
The Windows 98 startup sounded full and epic and like there's a universe to explore in front of you, Windows 11 sounds light fragile and half completed
Windows vista actually originally windows longhorn
something I noticed in this build is that this is the placeholder video used in 'Welcome to Windows 98' program, which was also used as a placeholder for Windows Millennium's Welcome program. I don't know what is the source of that 24 second sample of the "History of Media" 3D Animation, but I did find what music the animation used: Bay of Plenty (Underscore) by Art Phillips. Really would love to see the full version of that placeholder video, if it exists on the web.
My local supermarket still uses xp, i cant tell the theme though since the register app is fullscreen
Windows Vista: "So at this point we decided the world was going to be boring from now on"
Don't hate me alright? but for me, windows 7 is a perfect version of windows vista
U know, without vista + no aero
@@Youarenothing-d2x vista does have an aero
I love XP startup sound, it wasn't the first SO I had, but I think it's the most nostalgic and wholesome. I also love the Windws 98 one, which was the fist OS I used and it brings me a lot of memories from my childhood. Windows 95 is beautiful too and despite not being part of my childhood I feel some connection with it, Brian Eno was a genius.
I saw Windows Vista still being used along with Windows 8.1 where i work.
