95 didn’t even ship with FAT32 support originally. I agree with the original comment that it wasn’t until the OSR versions that it got good. But they never sold those in the box, you could only get an OSR version from a prebuilt compute. So a lot of people never experienced them or didn’t experience the original 1995 version of 95 that still required 8 character filenames.

95 wasn’t good. That’s when the “just format C: and reinstall windows” tradition started. I had to do that to my computer at least yearly until 2000 came along.

I never had to do it once. And compared to Win3.11, it was revolutionary. Though Oregon Trail stopped working on it, which was a bummer.
