Windows XP Game Edition 2010 is a bootleg Windows edition created by VXK SOFT released in 2010 and added to the archive on January 3rd, 2023.

Description

The bootleg is a modified Windows XP SP3 Russian ISO which styles the OS with a Windows Vista theme and includes some updates and drivers. The bootleg is very barebones and in fact strips a lot of things out, including things such as unnecessary services and programs. In an ironic twist, it even removes the standard games despite it being titled "Game Edition"! It is unattended and preactivated.

The bootleg was made using nLite 1.4.9.1.
