AutoPlay for MS-DOS-Based Applications

AutoPlay can also be used to install, configure, and run MS-DOS-based applications in a Windows 95 MS-DOS session. Each MS-DOS-based application can be configured with its own unique icon, Config.sys file, and Autoexec.bat file.

Windows 95 creates correct configuration files for an MS-DOS-based application. The startup application can then cause the MS-DOS-based application to start within a window. It can even cause Windows 95 to effectively restart the application if necessary and immediately return to Windows when the application closes.
