In this article, we will explore the possibility of running Windows 95 on Linux-Ubuntu, specifically from the perspective of a Windows engineer. While Windows 95 is not directly applicable to the Windows environment anymore, it holds historical significance and can be useful for certain scenarios such as software testing or nostalgia. We will discuss the steps required to set up and run Windows 95 on Linux-Ubuntu, along with alternative options available in the Windows environment.

Examples:

1. Install VirtualBox: Start by installing VirtualBox, a virtualization software that allows running different operating systems within a host system. Although VirtualBox is available for multiple platforms, we will focus on the Windows version for this example.

2. Download Windows 95 ISO: Obtain a copy of the Windows 95 ISO image file. While the original Windows 95 installation media may not be readily available, there are websites where you can legally download ISO files for older operating systems.

3. Create a new Virtual Machine: Open VirtualBox and create a new virtual machine. Choose "Windows 95" as the operating system type and allocate sufficient resources (RAM, disk space) based on your requirements.

4. Configure the virtual machine: In the VirtualBox settings for the Windows 95 virtual machine, attach the Windows 95 ISO file as a virtual CD/DVD drive. Adjust other settings as necessary, such as enabling shared folders or configuring network options.

5. Install Windows 95: Start the virtual machine and follow the on-screen instructions to install Windows 95. This process is similar to installing Windows on a physical machine.

6. Install guest additions (optional): VirtualBox provides "Guest Additions" that enhance the virtual machine's performance and functionality. Install the appropriate version of Guest Additions for Windows 95 to improve integration and enable additional features.

Alternative options for Windows environment:
If you are a Windows engineer and want to run Windows 95-like environment on Windows, you can consider the following alternatives:

1. Windows 95 Emulator: Use a Windows 95 emulator such as PCem or QEMU to simulate the Windows 95 environment on a modern Windows system. These emulators provide a more accurate emulation of the original operating system.

2. Virtualization software: Instead of running Windows 95 on Linux-Ubuntu, you can use virtualization software like VirtualBox or VMware to create a virtual machine running Windows 95 directly on a Windows host system.
