Windows 95 was released on August 15, 1995, and it was the first operating system in the Windows family that was called full OS software (compared to previous versions), which does not run as an extension of MS-DOS software. The GUI is almost entirely new in the Windows 95, some remarkable component of the Windows operating system that we use today such as taskbar, start menu, Windows Explorer, notification area, etc., are introdocued in Windows 95, which so far remained unchanged in all future versions of Windows.

Windows 95 Support Plug and Play for smooth installation of hadware devices, 32-bit applications, preemptive multitasking.

Microsoft has released several versions of Windows 95, the first original release with codenamed 'Chicago' was released on August 15, 1995, then the service pack and OEM are released. I recommend you OEM Service Release (OSR) 2.5 because it includes more features and bug fixes.
