Windows 7 Assassin's Creed is a bootleg Windows 7 RTM edition, which was created by krishi_4k. It released to the Newage-OS forums on April 2, 2010, and was added to the archive on November 15, 2021. Along with Windows Mac OS XP, this bootleg is one of the few influences in starting the Crusty Windows collection.

It is most known in the CollabVM community for being used as a testing OS for the CollabVM 2.0 private beta test conducted back in 2019.

Description

The bootleg is a modified Windows 7 RTM ISO, which themes the OS after the game Assassin's Creed, and adds some updates and programs. It comes with registry tweaks.

Notes

Bootleg quirks

This bootleg was once thought to be derived from normal Windows 7 RTM, but due to many similarities it has been linked with a relatively unmodified bootleg called Windows 7 Apple Logo, but a good majority of the bootleg is actually based on Tiny7. Windows 7 Apple Logo is similarly derived from Tiny7.
- It could also be based on Vision 7 Gamer Edition, according to the unattended file's CPI offline image path: <cpi:offlineImage cpi:source="wim:G:/Vision7GamerEd/sources/install.wim#Windows 7 ULTIMATE" xmlns:cpi="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:cpi" />
There is a broken shortcut on the Desktop called "Assassins Utility", which leads to an invalid path. The real path is supposed to be "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Assassins Utility", there you can find various tools which range from enabling Aero to Firewall Management. It will get fixed automatically the moment you try to open it.
There is also a broken shortcut on the Desktop to "Windows Search Service Media Center Namespace Extension Handler", which appears as a blank file on the desktop, which is undeletable. No matter how many times you delete it, it will always reappear. This is actually fully fixable however, you just need to apply this registry file to make it work (dead link).
The internet icon will still show that no network is connected, even when it is connected to the Internet.
The default username is "Administrator".
