Microsoft Windows 98 - Second Edition

Microsoft Windows 98 Second Edition: revised release of Windows 98

Microsoft Windows 98 Second Edition is the revised release of Windows 98. Today, it is mainly used to run programs, games and devices from this era in their original environment, to maintain software archives or to equip older computers true to the original.

Use today

Typical areas of use are operation in a virtual machine or on preserved historical hardware in order to run older programs and games, open old files or test software in the environment for which it was originally developed. In a virtual machine, the old system remains separate from the installed operating system, so that different settings can be tried out without changing your own PC. Which programs and devices work under Windows 98 Second Edition depends on the respective software, the available drivers and the virtualisation solution used.
