Alan_B Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Archives are here :- http://www.filehippo.com/download_ccleaner/history/5/ CCleaner version 3.00 Requirements: Windows 2000 / XP / Vista / Windows7 / XP64 / Vista64 / Windows7 64 / Windows8 / Windows8 64 http://www.filehippo.com/download_ccleaner/tech/8617/ CCleaner version 2.36 Requirements: Windows (All Versions) http://www.filehippo.com/download_ccleaner/tech/8417/ I guess that any Series 1 or series 2 will work on Win95.

Winapp2.ini Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 you may wish to look into emulating 16bit games on a modern computer if the win95 box doesn't work out winapp2.ini additions thread winapp2.ini github Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Nergal Posted March 26, 2014 Moderators Share Posted March 26, 2014 I once got version 1 for a win98 virtual machine. I think you should be able to get it from file hippo's ccleaner page Start here http://www.filehippo.com/download_ccleaner/history/10/ ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF. Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark) ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.

Moderators mta Posted March 26, 2014 Moderators Share Posted March 26, 2014 would running a Virtual Machine and installing Win95 in that be a viable alternative? Oracle VirtualBox is good - and free. but i reckon you'd come across driver issues for the sound, video (hell - probably everything) cards. Backup now & backup often.It's your digital life - protect it with a backup.Three things are certain; Birth, Death and loss of data. You control the last.

Moderators Nergal Posted March 27, 2014 Moderators Share Posted March 27, 2014 Win 95 loads fine with Vbox as long as you have what you need (boot disc and install disc/code) I made a 95 just to see the changes lol ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF.

Derek891 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 If you're looking for the old version of any software, it makes sense to look here first: http://www.oldversion.com/ *The link works if you hit "Windows", or enter "CCleaner" in the search field. Edit: I visited the forums at msfn.org and found the last version that was compatible with Win98SE was CCleaner v 2.36.1233, so use that as a starting point and work backwards for Win95. Start every day with a smile and get it over with. - W.C. Fields Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winapp2.ini Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 I've used oldversion in the past to pick up non-bloat versions of µTorrent and a few other programs, in case anyone's concerned about it winapp2.ini additions thread winapp2.ini github Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Andavari Posted March 27, 2014 Moderators Share Posted March 27, 2014 I wasn't aware that CCleaner ever worked on Win95. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neoacuity Posted March 27, 2014 Author Share Posted March 27, 2014 Thanks all Downloaded ver. 1.x.x (dont remember exactly) and it works just amazingly fine on win95 The higher versions, above the one I got, install but the kernel32 error comes up cause the higher versions of cclean, even though the description says for "All Windows", require windows ver. above Win95 Don't know why it just doesn't come out and say that. Thanks again and if I were a bit tech savvy and had the time, I would take the advice of some of you and try running a VM. Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Nergal Posted March 27, 2014 Moderators Share Posted March 27, 2014 Also for 95 and 98 you may need unicows.dll in the program (ccleaner) folder ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF.
