CrustyWindows:What qualifies: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 02:29, 5 December 2022

What qualifies as a "bootleg"? This wiki and the Crustywindows collection uses the following definitions.

If an ISO matches two out of the four:

Adds software
Adds registry/program tweaks
Modifies the theme
Modifies the setup and or OOBE

then it qualifies as a bootleg under our definition. ISOs that simply add updates or drivers (i.e. Windows XP End-Of-Life Edition, Windows 7 Gen2, etc) do not qualify as "bootlegs".

Exceptions are made for any ISOs with infamy or are otherwise noteworthy, i.e. Windows Longhorn Reloaded which resulted in actual legal action from Microsoft.
