| So, now I will clone the windows 98 disk. Then I will try windows 95 again.
With the file you passed me.

| Perfect, it connects! I tried to install windows again and this time I immediately used the file you passed me.
I'm installing IE5.5sp2 directly from the site http://windowsupdaterestored.com/
Ok, it works and connects to the internet.
Now let's proceed in order:
First: how do I view the icon of the PC connected to the internet? From the photo below, you can see that it doesn't appear.
Second: how can I connect the PC to the internet manually and not automatically?

| Windows 95 doesn't have a lights daemon, so unless the driver provides one, there isn't one.
Unless you can software eject the USB module, unplug the ethernet cable. |

| I'm sad... Too bad. For the connection, maybe there is a way to make it connect as if it were a modem? So I decide when to connect it to the internet. |

| There isn't, you'd have to disable it in device manager or disconnect the Ethernet cable. Ethernet doesn't use the DUN stack. |

| OK, thanks a lot. In any case, the device works and navigates.
Question, is there a browser that can allow me to surf, decently compatible with Windows 95?
Firewall and Antivirus?
A working mail manager? Outlook 2000 doesn't work. |

| Opera 10 is about the limit

I think 98 can run Opera 12 or K-Mellon 74 with KernelEx installed.
Your problem with everything, outlook included is that there is no SHA2 support. |

| Opera 10 works quite well. I wanted to try the K-Mellon 1.5.4 version compatible with windows 95, but unfortunately the following message appears:
Another thing, this message appears on Opera:
The program seems to work fine anyway, I'm wondering if I can ignore this message or should I update that file? |

| You have to install KernelEx first, but I think it is 98 only... not 100%.
As to the missing DLL, yes, grab the dll and regsrv it. |

It works great, even better than Opera. But there is a problem, I cannot visit many sites, because a message appears regarding the Security Protocol, which is not enabled. Do you know how to enable it?
EDIT:
Ok, solved. Everything works!
Do you know of a mail manager that still works today and an antivirus? For the Firewall I put ZoneAlarm. Edited by NarakuITA 2023-12-19 1:01 AM

I downloaded version 1.54 with TLS support.
