'''Crusty Windows''' (also called '''bootleg Windows''', '''modified Windows''') are illegally modified and (usually awful) variations of the Microsoft Windows operating system, typically developed by eccentric individuals who wish to see their [[Windows 7 Angry Birds|favorite OS and franchises collide]] or just want to include [[Chip Windows XP 2009|every driver and program in existence in their OS installs]]. Many of these bootlegs are [[Windows Conan XP|severely unstable]], [[Windows Dog XP|barely install at all]], [[Windows 7 FaceBooK Edition 2012|have nonsensical themes and wallpapers]], or are just simply [[Windows Seven Starter 3.0 No Pain|impossible to find because nobody in their right mind downloaded them]].
==History==

The first bootleg Windows version, interestingly enough, was very likely [[Whistler Build 2531]], a joke ISO done out of spite to troll the beta scene of the time. This build included many of the common things we see in bootlegs today; additional backgrounds, registry tweaks, and cracked activation.
