Bob Pony OS Beta 2 is a bootleg Windows 7 SP1 edition created by Bob Pony, which released in August 5th, 2016, after Bob Pony OS Beta 1. It is based on Windows 7, as opposed to its predecessor being based on Windows XP.

This was the final version of Bob Pony OS. There were rumors that a "Beta 3" was created at some point (but never actually released), however, it was confirmed by Bob Pony that Beta 3 never existed.^[1]
