Description
The OS was first uploaded to the (now defunct) CollabVM FTP Server, where the author stated his intentions to submit it to TeamOS. The OS was made using NTLite. A few components relating to VPNs and the immersive control panel are removed. Other than that, the OS is mostly a stock install.
Changes from Windows 8.1
- The user avatar is changed to the Fortnite logo.
- New Fortnite wallpaper.
- Most of the telemetry has been disabled.
- Two installers are added to the desktop, both in Public and the user's desktop directory. One is a Epic Games Launcher (Fortnite) installer, and another is a repackaged Discord installer with an old version of Discord Canary.
- Three Discord token stealer trojans have been added in the Startup directory.
Software
- Fortnite
- Discord Canary

Notes
- The author apparently used a Windows Embedded 8.1 Industry Pro ISO to create this OS and used Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter as their host OS.
