Notes

There are several text files in the CD root, as per usual for Freeware Sys. One of them are instructions on how to fix a known issue in the OS, that being the desktop being a black screen, and you not being able to change the wallpaper.
The Command Prompt's foreground color is set to dark gray.
None of the PortableApps apps work, due to the PortableApps.com launcher being inside "Program Files (x86)", which the launcher does not work with.
On-ScreenKeyboard does not work.
Notepad++ and CCleaner do not exist.
