I think you missed the part where Fvwm's built in menu creates an Fvwm95
type configuration.  (It uses the files you just removed.)

Take a look at:

fvwm/modules/FvwmScript/Scripts/FvwmScript-Setup95

Look further and you'll find the other files in sample.fvwmrc
are used too.

Let me make some comments here.

Long ago I created the FvwmSetup Form.
When Win95 came out, everyone wanted to go there.
When FvwmScript-Setup95 was created, I was less than happy
because the Script and Form went in 2 different directions.

Sadly, I had other things on my mind and didn't do much about it.

If you want to open this can of worms, I think some streamlining might
be in order, that's up to you.  I think it's a very good thing that Fvwm
has at least a minimal way to create a working configuration without
resorting to overblown theming engines mentioned above.

I suggest a recursive grep to find out where those files are used
or perhaps mentioned in the documentation.
