Description

The bootleg is a modified Windows XP SP3 ISO. It comes with some programs. It comes with an automatic program installer (with many programs in it). It has some wallpapers in it.

The RunOnceEx procedure is based on First.cmd, which is a batch script that calls other batch scripts in a series, to configure the system.

• The first script to be loaded, keydoard.cmd, sets the default keyboard layout to Hindi.
• The second script, mouse.cmd, sets up the mouse settings.
• The third script, imgsis.cmd, registers "Image.dll", which is the Byblos Shell Extension.
• The fourth script, quick.cmd, copies all of the preloaded Quick Launch entries from the WINDOWS\QUICK folder to the default Quick Launch folder.
• The fifth script, desktopx.cmd, copies all of the link files from "WINDOWS\desktopx" to the Desktop directory.
• The sixth script, volume.cmd, runs 2 programs, Vista Drive Icon and Wheels of Volume.
• The seventh script, multiset.cmd, sets a RunOnce key to run Almeza MultiSet 6.0, which is an automatic program installer, which will install all of the bundled programs.
• And the seventh and final script, Restart.cmd, simply restarts the machine.

It is unattended and preactivated. The bootleg was made using nLite 1.4.8.
