'''Windows 1992''' is a bootleg Windows XP SP3 edition created by MaddieMJD, released in 2019 and added to the archive on January 18th, 2022.
 
== Description ==
The OS is mostly stock Windows XP SP3, except it is now modeled after [[:Category:Bootlegs based on Windows 3.x|Windows 3.1]] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_NT_3.1 Windows NT 3.1]. The name comes from the year Windows 3.1 was released (in 1992) and [[:Category:Bootlegs based on Windows 2000|Windows 2000]]. The OS now launches an (empty) Program Manager from Windows NT 3.51, and applies a Windows 3.1-like theme to the OS. It also adds a few popular games from Windows 3.1.
 
Other than those changes, not much has been changed from XP itself.
 
== Changes from Windows XP SP3 ==
* Program Manager iswill always launchedrun on loginboot, but withoutit is not set as the default shell for some realweird usereason.
* The system font has been changed to the "System" font, to mimic Windows 3.1.
* The default wallpaper is a light shade of gray.
* The boot screen has been changed to an edited version of the splash screen from Windows 3.1, with "3.1" replaced with "1992".
* Several new themes have been added.
 
== Programs ==
* SkiFree, Chip's Challenge, and Tetris from Microsoft Entertainment Pack Volumes 3 and 1 respectively (or the Best Of release, where all three games reside).
* WinFile (also known as Windows File Manager), Calendar, Cardfile, and Clock ripped straight from Windows NT 3.51.
* uMenu16 (or microMenu16/μMenu16) 1.0
 
== Notes ==
* The reason why Program Manager doesn't have any real use is because the author forgot to make program groups for Program Manager to be usable, you have to make them manually.
