Windows 2007 is a visual mod of Windows Vista SP2. It was designed to resemble Vista's Beta releases, specifically Beta 2, and add new sounds, visual changes and other related content. This mod (particularly Build 6021) was used as the OS on VM 0b0t since the 21st revision, before getting replaced with Windows 9 Pro on the 23rd revision.

Changes

  • New Logon UI and Desktop wallpapers
  • New sound scheme produced by feandesign
  • Bug report icon added, which refers you to the Windows 2007 Discord server; this has since been closed.

Notes

  • Winver banner still reports Milestone 2 despite this being a Milestone 3 build
  • Beta 2 basic theme is missing
  • Graphical changes to the setup are not present without upgrading
  • New sounds cut off abruptly
  • System info reports Windows Vista rather than Windows 2007

Software

A graphical BCD editor made by Cosmo from build 6007 can be found in C:\Windows\BCDEDITOR.
