just a guess

idk

where did you get 10mb from

wait what

like if it’s over 10mb it’s probably setup

okay but what about the ‘program too big’ thing

fair

tech wasn’t that advanced back then

i mean windows 95 was from 1995

but also makes sense

that’s kinda sad if true

was it just a hardcoded list of filenames

how did windows 95 detect setup programs

okay but back to the original question

haha

probably just a vibe check

yeah

i remember getting that a lot

was it just a random popup

how did it even know that

okay but what about the ‘this program might not have installed correctly’ thing

lol true

windows 95 was dumb

but also kinda makes sense

no way it was that dumb

that’s it

or if it’s in a temp folder

like if the file name contains ‘setup’ or ‘install’

i think it was just a simple check

okay but seriously
