On the first boot of the OS, a resource patcher will automatically pop up and install all of the UI enhancements.

Notes
- The bootleg was finalized on October 21, but then was released a day later.
- "img100.jpg", a lock screen wallpaper, has had its watermark done improperly. It shows as "B o ss K a n a e S y s" (replace spaces with newlines), instead of "B o s s K a n a e S y s", like how it's supposed to be.
- Libraries are hidden by default.
- 6 unused images in Thumbs.db.
