Windows 95 is a consumer-oriented graphical user interface-based operating system. It was released on August 24, 1995 by Microsoft[2], and was a significant progression from the company's previous Windows products. During development it was referred to as Windows 4.0 or by the internal codename Chicago.
Windows 95 integrated Microsoft's formerly separate MS-DOS and Windows products. It features significant improvements over its predecessor, Windows 3.1, most notably in the graphical user interface (GUI) and in its simplified "plug-n-play" features. There were also major changes made at lower levels of the operating system, such as moving from a mainly 16-bit architecture to a pre-emptively multitasked 32-bit architecture.
In the marketplace, Windows 95 was a major success, and within a year or two of its release had become the most successful operating system ever produced. It also had the effect of driving other major players in the DOS-compatible operating system market out of business, something which would later be used in court against Microsoft. Some three years after introduction, Windows 95 was succeeded by Windows 98.
Notes:
Microsoft Entertainment Pack disks are installed.
You know you want to try it!
Known issues:
besides the OS itself - none as of yet.
Don't expect memory and CPU intense apps to boot up properly.
enjoy (or not)

Besides the OS itself XD

Thanks Doc.
This does not work for me I get an error.

looks like libfreetype.dylib is missing on your system setup. I expected it to be installed with OSX by default - maybe I was wrong or maybe you have a different version that has a different filename than what the app expects.
this probably helps:

not working for me.. but great try!
Ok I´ve updated the port and hopefully fixed the problem - everybody who's having problems with the previous version please redownload the app from the above link.
Re-downloaded - works without a hitch now, thank you.
I still get a message saying: Windows 95 cannot be opened because of a problem. etc. etc
do you know how I could fix this?

AWESOME!
it works! but how can i use the disc drive? is it possible to get extra stuff on there? and can you try windows 98 as well?
DOSBox can't emulate a DiskDrive in a Windows environment - just mount the win95.img inside the application package with Finder. ;)
I really like these projects! but I still get an error on this one. even the updated version... do you know what I could possibly try to fix this. this is my error window:

that error doesn't make sense - it looks like the app can't recognize libSDL-sound.dylib and reports it as damaged.
Try redownloading.
