720kb
Floppy Workspace
21 Windows GUI Programs
This is my version of a 720kb floppy disk (image) with as many small, functional and useful Windows GUI programs that I could fit into 720kb.
There are 21 programs in a 720kb DD 3.5" floppy image (IMA format).
With the exception of the unzip program and a text file that lists the contents of the image, all other programs are contained in a zip file in the IMA.
To use in a virtual machine:
* Mount the IMA file as floppy drive A:
* Run the unzip program 100K_zipper from A:
* Open the zip file in the IMA that contains the other 20 programs
* Create a working directory on C: and then extract the other 20 programs in the zip into it
* Also copy the unzip program to the working directory on C:
To use in a physical machine:
* Pretty much the same as above, except first write the IMA to a 720kb floppy and mount the floppy
Et voila !
21 small windows GUI programs for your enjoyment.
I've tested all of these programs on an XP VM and they all work fine. Some may work with w9x through to Windows 10, but that's for you to test out.
The only program with a dependency is the KaKeeware web browser that needs IE with ActiveX installed on the host machine.
If you don't want to futz around with mounting an image file, I've also included for download a separate zip file with all 21 programs so that all you have to do is unzip the contents of that to a USB drive and then drag and drop the 21 programs from the USB drive onto your P3 Windows XP white box PC.
The 21 programs in the floppy image are:
