Windows 10: Installing Win95 to separate drive to run old software

Installing Win95 separate drive to run old software

I am running an HP desktop with





● I have a working hard drive from a previous computer that was reformatted for storage.

● I have a folder entitled "Custom" saved/backed up through the years from "Corel Print House Magic 4 Premium/Family and Friend's" for Win95/98 that contains almost 25 years of birthdays, anniversaries etc. but lost the setup discs, as the software transitioned easily to win7,10,11 on my old computer that lasted (believe it or not) from 2011 to 2021 before it died.

However!

● I recently acquired on eBay the unopened new/old setup disks for said Print House 4 Premium containing the "Family & Friends" calendar.

------ I suspect the software geared for 95/98 won't load on my win10 Machine. like it did when it successfully survived through upgrades instead of installations.

------ Surprisingly I'm currently running on the above machine Claris works spreadsheets from 1999 to the present on a Win11 machine!

● I'm hoping to install Win95 on the separate hard drive, then install Corel Print House Magic 4 Premium 95/98, replacing the custom file with my backed up one, so I can harvest said birthdays etc.

● Question:

1 Can I safely leave the old hard drive plugged into the new computer during the win 95 installation to the old drive, or will it somehow interfere with win 10 installed on the new computers wardrive?

2 Does the old hard drive need to be reformatted back to it's original state in order to accept the Win95 installation so it can create a separate registry for it and if so... how?

3 Once the software is installed, would I be able to run the Corel software via a shortcut from the win10 machine to the Win9's stored Corel .exe file on Drive Z on my new computer?

4 Would I have to constantly have to log in and out of win95 to use the software?

Thank you for your patience

Please note that while I have experience with home desktop computers since 1996, in some matters I barely know what I'm talking about...
