Windows 8.1 Canada Edition is a bootleg Windows Embedded 8.1 Industry Pro edition created for TeamOS by ModMaker89 released in 2022 and added to the archive on December 10th, 2022. It is notable for being the third largest bootleg in the collection behind Windows 7 Christmas Edition 2015, and the second largest in the Windows 8.1 collection. It is one of ModMaker89's first bootlegs.

Description

Windows 8.1 Canada Edition adds a new macOS theme, with a Canada theme. Additionally, themes with wallpapers depicting Toronto, a city in Ontario and other themes featuring Alberta and Saskatchewan wallpapers.
