Windows 98 is a graphical operating system released on June 25, 1998 by Microsoft.
The new operating system was essentially an updated version of Windows 95, and like that earlier version, it was a hybrid 16-bit/32-bit product. As in later releases of Windows 95, Internet Explorer continued to be integrated into the Windows GUI (a feature which was called Active Desktop).
Although the upgrade sold well from the outset, Windows 98 was substantially larger and slower than Windows 95 and the original release had a significant number of compatibility and stability issues.
Windows 98 Second Edition
Windows 98 Second Edition (also known as "Windows 98 SE") was released on June 10, 1999, it is a similar release when compared to today's service packs. It included fixes for many minor issues, the replacement of Internet Explorer 4 with the significantly faster and lighter Internet Explorer 5, and support for DVD Playback.
It was a successful product, though it was not a free upgrade for Windows 98 (first edition) customers.
Windows 98 was succeeded by Windows ME when a "consumer" version of Windows 2000 was abandoned.
