Installation & Exploration: Windows 95, July 20 1992 build

A build of Windows Chicago/95 before 58s was recently found, and it actually predates 58s by over a YEAR! Also, it can still run in standard mode/on a 286, since it completely lacks any Win32 support!

Glad an earlier build was leaked, but it doesn't have as much as 58s

[@Galaxy.Windows]

thats what it meks it cool

[@UmarBlox5124]

wait development started that early?

[@awethebird]

Yup. We know now because of the leaked build

[@kbhasi]

Whoa!
I initially thought this was fake like with some of the images I had seen of ‘Cougar’ builds (which I think were fake), but by the looks of it, what you showed was a real build, but the UX team were likely still doing research work and hadn't yet got to work putting in their code.
Even then, I could see early bits of stuff like a new graphics stack, new fonts and font rendering (likely DirectDraw), and some of the utilities that would eventually make it to build 950 (Windows 95 RTM).

[@errortechyt]

Great video! :D

[@UmarBlox5124]

Fun Fact: The low memory error and the bsod dont appear when upgrading from windows 3.1, so the bsod is not because its not running on cougar but for some reason when exiting the item manager a low memory error appears

[@Evie]

Hmm, I hope more builds between this one and 58s get leaked. would love to see that :p

[@𰻝]

Yes haiden, only the builds between this one and 58s, not the ones before it

[@RyanElliott2005]

This build is EXACTLY on my birthday 💀

[@ninteenth]

this build is so early that it doesn't look like Chicago.

[@nathanmcneill8712]

LagLife hi mate how did you manage to get xp x64 or x86 windows xp 32bit on uefi ive been trying to do that many times but never can

[@rockpie.squashfs]

He did with x64 Edition in his previous video

[@nathanmcneill8712]

@@rockpie.squashfs yeah i tried x64 but can never be able to get to the setup screen

[@rockpie.squashfs]

@@nathanmcneill8712 I think you have to use BIOS (CSM on real hardware) _then_ switch to UEFI

[@Mathiaspcgamer1234]

What is the system on your real Linux computer?

[@nmmm2000]

Looks like Win 3.11 :) Was this with true 32 bit multitasking ?

[@laglife]

Nope, 386 enchanced mode for Windows 3.x was not true 32-bit. In fact this build is so early that there's no Win32 support at all for 32-bit applications.
