=== Look and feel ===
* Royale is set as the default theme.
* There's a shortcut on the desktop called "Selección del explorador" (Browser selection) which is supposed to help the user to install a new web browser. Clicking "Aceptar" redirects to https://www.microsoft.com/es-es/BrowserChoice/ (this website is not avaliable anymore).
* Default user tiles are replaced with Windows 7 ones.
* Explorer is set to use the classic folders by default (can be restored to show the sidebar with common tasks).
