This is a repost from a post by JMATT in the winme9895 help forum. I thought it belonged here too!

Got problems and don't want to reinstall W95...
Don't want to lose any of your settings or software? There's a command
line option that'll get you back on your feet in no time. Boot up your
PC with a Windows 95 boot disk , pop in your Windows 95 CD, and once
you're at the command prompt, type your CD-ROM drive letter immediately
followed by a colon. So, if your CD was set to "D" you'd enter D: and
then hit ENTER. At this point, type the following command: SETUP /pf.
This switch will restore all of Windows critical files to their factory
state, and in 99 % of situations doing this will fix whatever problems
you were having in Windows 95.
