## MS-DOS seems to brick the screen
Hit `Alt + Enter` to make the command screen "full screen" (as far as Windows 95 is
concerned). This should restore the display from the garbled mess you see and allow
you to access the command prompt. Press Alt-Enter again to leave full screen and go
back to a window mode. (Thanks to @DisplacedGamer for that wisdom)

## Windows 95 is stuck in a bad state
Restart the application and click on the "Reset machine & delete state" button.
You can find it in the lower left of the screen. Then, hit the "Start Windows 95"
button to start your virtual machine again.
## I want to install additional apps or games
If you are running Windows 10, macOS, or Linux, you can probably "mount" the
virtual hard drive used by `windows95` to add files. Hit the "Show Disk Image"
button in the lower right of the app, which will take you to the disk image.
On both Windows 10 and macOS, double-click the disk image to open it.
On Linux, search the Internet for instructions on how to mount an `img` disk
image on your distribution.
