Windows 95 build 89e

Windows 95 build 89e is a Milestone 6 build of Windows 95. It was leaked on 5 May 2020. Although very similar to the next leaked build (build 90c), there are some minor visual differences between them. This is also the earliest leaked build to include the redesigned Microsoft Paint program, though it's still called "Paint Brush" in the About dialog.

Changes

 * Taskbar is now at the top by default.
 * Only the My Computer icon is present on the desktop.
 * My Computer is no longer a shortcut to.
 * It uses an early version of Microsft Paint instead of the old Paintbrush.
 * Double-clicking on the clock in the taskbar brings up Date & Time settings.
 * Double-clicking on the desktop no longer brings up the task manager.
 * Control Panel and Printers icons were added to My Computer.

Since build 81

 * My Briefcase is now renamed as "My Briefcase.bfc" instead of "My brief.bfc".
 * My Computer is the second item, Network is the third icon, Programs folder is the fourth icon, and Recycle Bin is the last icon on the sesktop.
 * You can't use the taskbar as a folder manager anymore.
 * The Ctrl+Alt+Del keys now open Task Manager instead of the Reboot dialog.
 * Dr. Watson does not open on startup.
 * Floppy drivers have been fixed.

Bugs and quirks

 * WritePad often encounters an error upon opening, but it can be loaded by ignoring the error messages until it opens.
 * Messaging Config does not open and results in a LoadLibrary error.
 * Microsoft Mail 4.0 does not open and the launcher closes instantly after launch.
 * MAPI Spooler instantly closes shortly upon launch due to an internal LoadLibrary error.
 * Windows classifies the Briefcase as a system folder and attempting to delete it will result in the special deletion message for system files.

SUWIN.EXE problem
The original warez leak had a corrupted  that caused a general protection fault (GPF) after the user confirmed the user information, and setup would crash back to the DOS prompt. A working copy of the file was included separately, which must be used in order to install this build.

Hardware compatibility
Like earlier builds, this build has no native support for ATAPI CD-ROM drives - you must either use MSCDEX for ATAPI, or a SCSI adapter and CD-ROM drive instead, which will be detected and installed automatically.

Certain display adapters and driver combinations may glitch out or not work at all.

Sound card programs
If a sound card, such as a Sound Blaster or Windows Sound System, is installed, opening the Multimedia control panel may cause  to crash. Recovery is possible, as the shell can be restarted and continues to operate normally after.

This also applies to the Mixer Controls application, although only the  application crashes instead of.

Desktop wallpaper
The default desktop wallpaper is, but it's not actually displayed properly, only the background color is. If you change any wallpaper settings, the wallpaper will be displayed, but the Center option does not work and instead produces the same result as Tiled.

The following files have been introduced or removed compared to build 81:
