== Description ==
The bootleg is a modified Windows 7 SP1 ISO, which has been slimmed down with most of its features removed. It isshares evidentlyassets based onwith [[Windows 7 Angry Birds Edition]] (which was released a few months prior and by a different author), as the folder icons (featuring Angry Birds Space) are the same. The bootleg is known to be unstable, many programs refuse to launch and system functions will break for seemingly no reason at all.
 
Several of the operating system's images have been replaced with a graphic displaying the bootleg's name as well as pictures of a child smiling. The background has been replaced with a giant cartoon smiley face on top of a rainbow background. You can find additional software (not to be confused with Unattended Soft) on the CD.
 
On the first boot of the OS, the user is prompted to optionally install various software through the pre-included post installation wizard by the OS customization tool used to make the bootleg. This prompt does not reappear upon reboot, but can be opened again by opening "Unattended Soft" on the Desktop.
 
The ISObootleg was createdmade using RT 7 Lite RC 1.7.0 and vLite 1.2 on Windows 7 SP1 32-bit.
 
== Changes from Windows 7 SP1 ==
=== Minor changes ===
* The default OS name in the Setup is now "Windows 7 ULTIMATE". "ULTIMATE" is uppercase, while stock Windows 7 is just "Ultimate".
* The setupStart Menu's EULA is now displayedavatar inborder thehas Systembeen fontremoved.
 
=== Changes in pre-desktop procedures ===
* New icon set. The "Computer", "Network", "Recycle Bin", "Control Panel", and user folder icons have all been changed. Explorer has also had some icons changed
* The start orb has been replaced with a smiley face
* Only 3 gadgets remain - Calendar, Clock and CPU.
 
== Software ==
=== Bootleg quirks ===
* Antiviruses (notably Avast) tend to detect explorer.exe as {{link|url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virut|name=Virut}} despite it being a false positive, and will attempt to delete it, crippling the system.
* Windows Update is somewhat broken, which can be seen by trying to install the KB4474419 update - it will say that it was not installed, despite installing correctly on a completely stock, unupdated version of Windows 7 SP1.
* In Setup, many special symbols do not render correctly and check boxes look rather strange. The former is due to Marlett, a system font needed for various system symbols not loading in properly, and the latter may be due to a theme issue.
* The setup's EULA is now displayed in the System font.
* During the OOBE portion, the dialog is rendered in the Classic theme, probably due to DWM breaking.
* Occasionally a bug will occur, where the login wallpaper is replaced with the one from [[Windows 7 Angry Birds Edition]].
* The icons for the Recycle Bin are switched, with the full icon being empty and vice versa.
* You can find a vLite session file
* Windows Update is somewhat broken, which can be seen by trying to install the KB4474419 update - it will say that it was not installed, despite installing correctly on a completely stock, unupdated version of Windows 7 SP1.
* There is a <code>Custom_reg.reg</code> file in System32. It contains registry keys related to Windows Mail and setting up associations for it.
* There are leftovers from Universal Theme Patcher 1.5.0.22. Custom themes are allowed on this OS.
* The taskbar is unlocked.
