I don't have a clue as to what happened to my computer this weekend.
I attempted to rejuvenated my Windows95, by re-installing a copy of
Windows95 which I bought for $1.00.
Everything STOPPED working. Looked like I had lost everything, since I
had elected to write over some newer DLL versions. Then I deleted IE v
5.0, and installed IE v 4.0 since IE was NOT working at all. Programs
that had stopped working, started all of a sudden to work again. Then
I attempted to install my ISP, and the last step in the registration
processing refused to work properly. Then a file folder called Recycle
started to grow and grow. I couldn't delete it, because it was a
system file???
Then I turned off the Recycle Bin. I was able to finally delete that
super big Recycle folder. And, then my ISP install finally worked.
Now, I have a perfectly working copy of Windows95 along with IE v 5.5
since the ISP software automatically copied over IE v 4.0.
What happened? I don't have a clue. Other than that my rejuvenation
plans turned out to have worked a lot better than expected. All the
bugs that I was experiencing have disappeared from Windows95, IE, and
my ISP. I even ended up with an upgrade to my copy of IE. :)
I am back on the Internet, with a better than ever junk computer. It
just took a lot longer than expected. :(
