It is possible to start Windows 96 with additional startup arguments to enable/disable specific functionality. They can be specified in the URL as query parameters.

Note: This is different from system flags and takes higher precedence in the startup process, since it foregoes any storage to persist its values.

List of startup arguments

Argument Value Description
live 1/0 Whether to boot Windows 96 in "Live Mode" (a mode which does not install Windows 96 locally, but on a temporary RAM disk instead). This mode also skips setup prompts and gives you the default experience straight away.
debug 1/0 Whether to enable debug mode. This flag enables a console.
rootfs <string> Specifies the path/URL of the root filesystem zip to use.
faster 1/0 If set to 1, the boot time will be faster.
