Transformation packs are programs which transform an existing Windows (or Linux) install into a crusty bootleg. These bootlegs are different in that they don't (usually) come in an ISO format, but instead require the user to run an executable in an already existing Windows install. A few bootlegs run a transformation pack executable on first bootup to transform the OS, or come already integrated with the OS.
An example of transformation packs being used in a bootleg is Quelitu for Linux, and Windows 2001 for Windows XP, while an example of an independent transformation pack (i.e. one that is installed on an already existing install) is Moebuntu for Linux, and "Windows 8 Transformation Pack", created by Windows X (one of the most popular transformation pack creators of the time).
Transformation packs are not typically archived in the Crusty Windows collection.
