Theme to Windows 95 redux

actually that was an add-on to windows 95 called windows 95 Plus!
that they later made a part of win98. THen they make an extra package with
more themes
that was plus! for win98...

it was not part of the original win95 cd...

you always had to buy Plus!, and there is a version of plus! for xp too,
with extra themes.
However they did not unlock the ability to add 3rd party msstyles (visual
styles).
That was left to 3rd party programs and some hacks that floated around the
internet.

I know however what you mean... you are talking about a program that was
like plus! was in win95 that could handle all aspects of a theme and save
it...

sound & cursor themes especialy died with xp.....
