WINDOWS 95 (OSR) OEM SERVICE RELEASE
If you are going to continue using Windows 95 into the Year 2000, you need
to download a patch file from the Microsoft Internet site.
The patch will resolve all versions of Windows 95 for the following issues:
Explorer supports 4-digit dates but must be set in Control Panel
Regional Settings.
Windows File Manager does not display dates beyond the year 2000.
Also, COMMAND.COM does not display 4-digit dates and the DATE
command (internal to COMMAND.COM) does not correctly handle 2-digit dates
from 00-79. Entering this command will return the error "Invalid Date."
To install the update, obtain "WIN95Y2K.EXE" from
ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/softlib/mslfiles
This file contains updated versions of COMMAND.COM and installs the
correct version. The file also contains the updated version of WINFILE.EXE
