- According to Microsoft developer Raymond Chen, Windows 11 version 26H2 contains EmulateHeap, based on recompiled Windows 95 memory-manager code.
- A bug in the first Windows version of SimCity made it reuse freed memory, prompting special handling in Windows 95 betas.
- In later Windows versions, EmulateHeap redirects an application's memory commands to substitute routines imitating Windows 95 when the correction is enabled.
- After updates, users reported missing sound in GTA Vice City or crashes in Need for Speed: Most Wanted with the correction enabled.
