Windows 7 Dark Ultimate Netbook Edition is a bootleg Windows 7 SP1 ISO, which was created by CheateR. It released on January 17, 2011, and was added to the archive on August 9, 2022.

Description

The bootleg is a modified and slightly stripped down Windows 7 SP1 ISO, with a dark theme applied onto it. It's got some programs, tweaks and updates added. Its primary goal is to be as well optimized as possible for weak hardware (like netbooks, and other such). Some parts of the setup are unattended, and the OS is preactivated with a pre-included crack.

A post-installation wizard has been added to the OS, thanks to a default feature of the OS editing tool used to make the bootleg being used.

The ISO was made using RT 7 Lite beta 2.6.0.

Changes from Windows 7 SP1

Minor changes

A slew of new desktop context menu entries have been added

Changes in pre-desktop procedures

A new dark Aurora-looking background is used throughout parts of the OS's setup, such as the initial Setup, the OOBE, and finally, the login screen

Look and feel

New default theme, and wallpaper
New icon set
The Start orb has been replaced with a dark orb with a white Windows logo

Software

Updates

Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1, 4.0
RogueSpear's Other Runtimes v3.3.0
Microsoft Visual C++ 2005, 2008, 2010 Redistributable
Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool

Software on the CD

Adobe Flash Player 10
avast! Free Antivirus 5.0.594
CCleaner 3.02
Office 2003
Skype 5.0.0.152
KMPlayer 3.0.0.1439
uTorrent 2.2 Build 23774
Winamp 5.601
WinRAR 3.93 (cracked, FFF keygen)
Windows Loader v1.9.5

Notes

Bootleg quirks

The FFF keygen bundled with WinRAR is intended for WinRAR 3.80 and 3.90 beta 1, but the included WinRAR in this bootleg is version 3.93, which is too new. However, this is only for patching functionality, the keygen will still work fine.
In the post-installation segment, the bundled Skype installer is an online installer, therefore it will not work due to the download servers for old Skype being long since dead.
