'''Windows 1992''' is a bootleg [[:Category:Bootlegs based on Windows XP|Windows XP SP3]] edition, which was created by MaddieMJD.
== Description ==
The OS is a modified Windows XP SP3 ISO, with DriverPack version 12.09, OnePiece IE8 Update Pack 7.4.0 and WindowsXP Post-SP3 Update Pack (QFE) 20131112 integrated. The OS has been almost entirely themed after [[:Category:Bootlegs based on Windows 3.x|Windows 3.1]] (and some of [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 the Windows 3.1 era.
A new utility called Shell Configuration has been added, that allows you to switch between Program Manager and Windows Explorer as your main shell.
Other than a Windows 3.1 theme and the included Windows 3.1 apps, not much has been changed from XP itself
It is unattended, and preactivated. The ISO was made using nLite 1.4.9.3 on Windows 8 (or higher).
== Changes from Windows XP SP3 ==
* The setup engine is changed to use the Windows 2000 one
* New boot graphics. The boot screen has been changed to an edited version of the splash screen from Windows 3.1, with "3.1" replaced with "1992"
