Office 95

Microsoft Office for Windows 95 (also known simply as Microsoft Office 95 or Microsoft Office 7) was a fully 32-bit version of Microsoft Office released along-side Windows 95. It is also natively compatible with Windows NT 3.51, where it replaced Office 4.2 for Windows NT, which included 32-bit Word 6.0 and Excel 5.0, but 16-bit PowerPoint 4.0.

Few new features were introduced in Word 95, which was largely reminiscent of version 6.0. Word's version is 7.0 in this release and other Office programs have had their version numbers increased to 7.0 to match that of Word. For example, Excel 5.0 was followed by Excel 7.0 (Excel 95).

The Microsoft Office Manager has been replaced with the Microsoft Office Shortcut Bar, which was available until its removal in Office 2003. On Windows 95 and later, it also installs two shortcuts to create a new or open an existing document in the Start menu.

Office 95 was available in two editions: Standard and Professional. The Standard edition was available in July 1995 and included Word 95, Excel 95 and PowerPoint 95. The Professional edition added Access 95 but was delayed until September when development of Access 95 was completed.
