Windows 95 runs wrong applications at startup due to wrong shortcuts or folder.
Cause:
Shortcuts to the applications are in the 'Windows 95 StartUp' folder, or the Windows 95 Registry points to the incorrect 'StartUp' folder.
Solution:
Remove unwanted applications from the 'StartUp' folder.
1) Right-click the 'Start' button. (The 'Start' button pop-up menu appears. This is different from the 'Start' menu.)
'Start' button pop-up menu
2) Select 'Explore'. (The Windows 95 'Explorer' appears.)
3) Double-click the 'Windows' folder.
4) Double-click the 'Start Menu' folder.
5) Double-click the 'Programs' folder.
6) Double-click the 'StartUp' folder.
7) Select the unwanted application objects in the 'StartUp' folder.
NOTE: To select more than one application at a time, press and hold CTRL while selecting the applications with the mouse.
8) Press DELETE. (The 'Are you sure you want to send these x items to the Recycle Bin' confirmation box appears, where x is the number of selected items.)
9) Click 'Yes'.
