Windows Life XP 2013 is a bootleg Windows XP SP3 edition, which was created by Abdallah Sherif. It released on July 12, 2013, and was added to the archive in early 2022.

Description

The bootleg is a modified Windows XP SP3 ISO, with DriverPacks version 12.03 integrated. It comes with its own boot selector. Through it, you can access Hiren's BootCD Mini 2010. It comes with many themes and wallpapers, some programs, and plenty of cursors, fonts, icons and screensavers. It comes with registry tweaks. It comes with its own WPI, and autorun.

On the first boot of the OS, you will be presented with a WPI, where you can install the programs you want to. Then, at the end, you will get the option to install extra drivers, with Easy Driverpack.

You can access the WPI after setup, in the autorun, albeit a different version of it. All of the program names are in Arabic.

The ISO was made using nLite, the autorun was made with AutoPlay Media Studio 8.0.2.0, and the boot selector used was EasyBoot 5.1.0.566. The ISO was touched up with UltraISO 7.6e.
