The Mother of All Win95 Utilities

If you download and install only one Win95 utility, make it Tweak UI. This incredibly handy tool lets you customize Win95 like nobody's business. Just check out the following tips to find out all the amazing things you can do with Tweak UI.

How to Install Tweak UI

Make a folder on your desktop called TWEAK, go to the WinMag Free Win95 Software page (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/software/powertoy.htm) and click on the Tweak UI item to download the file TWEAKUI.EXE to your new folder. Double-click on the file to auto-extract its contents. Right-click on the file TWEAKUI.INF and select Install from the context menu. A Help file will come up during installation. After you close the Help file, Tweak UI will be installed. You can then delete the TWEAK folder and everything that's in it.
