I remember mid-90s it was typical for a home computer to come with a prominent tutorial on mouse usage. There was definitely one for MacOS 7, while I don't recall if there was an official Microsoft tutorial for 90s Windows or just ones provided by OEMs.
Solitaire was allegedly used to teach people about drag-and-drop with the mouse:
> Microsoft intended Solitaire "to soothe people intimidated by the operating system," and at a time where many users were still unfamiliar with graphical user interfaces, it proved useful in familiarizing them with the use of a mouse, such as the drag-and-drop technique required for moving cards.

There was definitely one in Windows 3.1 as well, though I don't believe it made it to 95. I've often heard that Solitaire and Minesweeper were also intended to effectively be mouse tutorials where people learned by doing while playing the game.
