=== Development log ===

: 18 tweaks made. One of them hides the Recycle Bin. You can now rename and delete it too. The ClassicSetup option in the Options section is added, and it does not appear in the future session files. This is the only instance of it being there.
: The 5 new themes in the final bootleg is included. Notice the username - "44hy1".
: The first GuiRunOnce entry is added - the section will play a major role in this bootleg later on. For now, it'll just copy a shortcut to Program Manager to the Startup directory
; August 23, 2019 15:31:52
: User information is added - the full name and organization is now "User" and "User". The computer name is "WIN1992", while the workgroup name is "WORKGROUP"
; August 23, 2019 20:58:49
: 3 new GuiRunOnce entries included. The old Progman shortcut has been renamed to "Program Manager". The new entries add new shortcuts to the Accessories directory in All Users, including Program Manager.
: The organization name has been changed to "Windows 1992". A timezone has been now specified - GMT-08:00
; August 25, 2019 00:06:04
: A new program is included - uMenu16, and it now gets added to Accessories. Yes, it's in a GuiRunOnce entry. The new boot screen is now included - a new boot.ini with different boot parameters will overwrite the old one. A boot bitmap file gets dropped - this contains the new boot screens. It is also in, although a series, of GuiRunOnce entries.
: '''Note:''' There is a misspelling in the XCOPY command for the boot bitmap to WINDOWS. It would take until 17:45:11 to fix this mistake.
: The timezone is changed to GMT-05:00. The user information is now in a final state, and will remain the same for the rest of the development cycle.
; August 25, 2019 07:47:16
: The order of the boot screen entries have been shifted slightly. The boot bitmap now gets copied first, then boot.ini gets overwritten. The DEL command now accounts for hidden files, thanks to the <code>/A:H</code> parameter being there.
; August 25, 2019 08:11:37
: The DefaultStartPanelOff option in the Unattended section is included. This is the first instance of the Start menu using the classic style, a change that will persist in future versions.
: The order of the boot screens entries return to their original state, prior to when it was changed nearly the hour before.
; August 25, 2019 08:14:07
: The My Computer, My Documents, My Network Places and Internet Explorer now get hidden by default. This is because the start menu is set to the Classic style by default, and that causes those icons to show up, so these tweaks remove them, to look cleaner.
; August 25, 2019 17:45:11
: The "1992" theme in the DesktopThemes section now leads to a link to "Classic.msstyles" in the <code>C:\Windows\Resources\Themes\Classic</code> directory.
: The DesktopTheme entry in the Unattended section, has had the second item (the color scheme for Windows XP themes) changed to "Default 16 bit". It was previously just "Default".
: The spelling error noted in the 00:06:04 entry has now been fixed.
; August 27, 2019 08:54:46
: 5 new programs included - they are Windows 3.1/Windows NT 3.x programs, copied over from their respective OSes. They now get copied to Accessories.
; August 27, 2019 09:47:39
: The "1992" theme makes a return - the DesktopTheme is now set to "Default||".
: Paintbrush and Write inexplicably disappear for no reason, making 3 of the Windows 3.1 programs included in total.
; August 27, 2019 10:14:06
: The DesktopTheme entry is set to "Classic style|Default|Normal size"
; August 30, 2019 21:24:05
: A new tweak is applied - which now makes the login screen use the older Windows 2000 one. This only lasts for nearly 2 weeks, until it gets reverted back to normal.
; September 14, 2019 15:28:40
: The tweak from earlier is, indeed, reverted back t normal
; September 30, 2019 20:40:22
: 3 new programs hit the scene, and they are all games. They are present in the final release. Speaking of, it is getting close to final release, if you can call it that.
