Windows Vista Black Edition is a bootleg Windows Vista SP1 edition, which was created by Benjamin Samson. It released on July 17, 2008, and was added to the archive on December 9, 2021.
It was Benjamin Samson's third ever bootleg, after Windows Vista Xtreme Edition, which is currently lost. It is the first bootleg by the then-recently established Black Edition Team to be based on Windows Vista,[1] as all of their other bootlegs prior to this one were based on Windows XP.[1] Windows Vista Eternity 2009 is the successor to this bootleg.
Description
The bootleg is a modified Windows Vista SP1 ISO which comes with many programs and themes. It comes with a Yahoo! Messenger Vista Preview installer in the Programs directory.
It also comes with a new autorun which lets you install additional software, and two software packs on the CD which have keygens / cracks for their respective programs.
It is unattended, and preactivated with a bootloader crack.
