Playing the Explorer/NAL Shell Game
Articles and Tips: tip
01 Aug 1999
If you want to use the Novell Application Launcher (NAL) as your shell in Windows 95 instead of Windows Explorer, follow these steps:
Copy the following files to a directory on your hard disk:
NALW95.EXE NALRES32.DLL NALBMP32.DLL NAL.HLP
In the SYSTEM.INI file (located in your Windows directory), find the line in the [boot] section that starts with SHELL= (it will probably say SHELL= EXPLORER.EXE).
Replace the current setting with the full path of the NALW95.EXE file (for example, SHELL=C:\path\ NALW95.EXE).
Save the changes and restart Windows.
