Windows AlphaBetas is a bootleg Windows edition created by ddrmaxromance and Troy's Work in 2006.
Description
The bootleg is mostly intended to be an enhancement to Windows 2000 by adding unused/beta content, as per the name. It has some software bundled with it which you can install on the CD itself.
Changes from Windows 2000
- New branding on the autorun, Setup background, Winver banner and in a few other places
- The boot screen has been edited to have a green and black progress bar with the author's branding on it. The logo is changed to a Windows Neptune style logo, and a Watercolor-themed window is added, with nine of the major Windows betas and releases with their corresponding Windows default shell icons
- The Windows directory is titled "WINABCS" instead of the original "WINNT"
- The My Computer and Network Neighborhood icons have been changed
- The Start button has no text and uses the 16 color XP icon
- The taskbar is unlocked by default and the Quick Launch toolbar is set with nothing in it
- The start menu icons have been changed to their original icons from different angles in various background colors
- The Explorer icons now have color when you hover over them
Software
- Best of Microsoft Entertainment Pack
- Mozilla Firefox 2.0
- Stardock CursorXP
- QuickTime
- Trillian 3.1
Notes
- When the Setup is copying files, two files (ir50_32.dll and winver.exe) will "fail" to install. You can skip them just fine, it won't actually affect the installation.
