Windows Vista Live CD is a bootleg Windows Vista RTM live PE distribution based on VistaPE, which was created by NightMan, who is also the creator of VistaPE. It released on January 3, 2007, and was added to the archive on December 12, 2021. It is one of the earliest Windows Vista bootlegs known to exist, next to Windows Vista Game Edition 2008.
Description
The bootleg is a stripped down Windows Vista RTM ISO whose purpose is to be both a live CD and a lite distribution, therefore it comes with a PE. It comes with many useful utilities, graphical and command-line included.
The ISO was made using VistaPE (based on WinBuilder).
Changes from Windows Vista RTM
Minor changes
- Essential PE utilities like PE Network Configurator and PE Shell Swapper have been added
- Total Commander has been added to the CD root as a way of navigating folders on the system, as there is no Explorer

Notes

- The bootleg is partially in Russian because you can find Russian writing in some places, such as in the Programs list there is romanized Russian for the word "Разное" (Raznoe), and in a few of the bundled programs they start in Russian language.
