'Windows 96' has appeared, and you can access a fictitious Windows that is reminiscent of the famous OS of the past from a browser

Windows that appeared in the 1990s include '

Windows 95 ' released in 1995 and 'Windows 98 ' released in 1998. If Windows appeared in the year when such a major version was not released ... So, the unlikely ' Windows 96 ' code that runs on browsers such as HTML5, CSS, JavaScript, and WebAssembly on the Internet A website created just by itself has appeared.

When you open 'Windows 96', the home screen reminiscent of Windows 9x will be displayed as shown below. Various applications can be started not only from the shortcut on the desktop, but also from the start menu at the bottom left of the screen. However, since many of the provided applications are unimplemented, there are many cases where 'double-clicking does not start anything'.

Double-click 'Wiki 96' on the desktop to start it, and the Windows 96 Wiki will open. This page contains information about each version of Windows 96 and explanations about available applications, so it feels like a Windows 96 manual.

'MsgRoom' is a chat room function that can be used within Windows 96. However, when I actually tried to use it, I could not send a message because there was no one on MsgRoom.

'Package Manager' is an application that can

actually be used as a package management system.

If you double-click the icon you've seen somewhere that says 'Door disc' ...

You will be invited to a Windows 96 server on Discord.

In 'Settings', you can open the control panel and change the wallpaper, change the theme, and so on. If you want to change the wallpaper, click 'Settings'-> 'Dynamic Wallpaper'-> 'Built-in dyn wallpapers'-> 'OK'. Only the last 'OK' button was cut off, but I couldn't scroll this screen vertically.

After clicking 'Gameing', you can play the game after a fairly long loading time of 5 minutes or more. You can check the operations related to the game in 'STRUCT MODE'.

The game screen looks like this, it is a Minecraft-like game where you move the character from the first person perspective and place the items.

Please note that not all applications work properly. When I clicked 'Share Board', the error message '502 Bad Gateway' was displayed and it became unavailable.

'Windows 96' is created by 'MIKE SOFT', a duo of programmers and artists. MIKESOFT describes Windows 96 as 'a website that aims to perfectly reproduce the experience of Windows 9x on the Internet.'

In addition, MIKESOFT said, 'Maintaining Windows 96 is costly. Hosting and maintenance of this site is important to us, and we are currently paying the maintenance fee at our own expense. If you can donate, the site It will help us maintain our hosting and maintenance, which will support the lives of our developers, 'he said, soliciting donations on Patreon.
