I am a man of many fields and colors who considers themselves a jack of all trades, and I happen to have many contacts far and wide which I have established over various decades of professional experience working in many fields of expertise, so I have tried to locate the ISO image myself to see if I could assist in your expedition and I have turned up with great success, unlike how you cronies have been unsuccessfully searching with no luck for many months, possibly years. So please, ladies and gentlemen, line up in an orderly fashion and gaze with reverence and amazement!", the man explained.

Windows 7 FaceBooK Edition 2012 is a bootleg Windows 7 SP1 edition created by BossKanae, released in August 2012. It was one of BossKanae's first releases.

Once considered lost and one of the most elusive bootlegs known to all in Crusty Windows land, the aforementioned bootleg was rescued by a fallen angel from a faraway land on approximately August 9th, 2022 and hastily uploaded to the grand Crusty Windows vault on the same day. It also became the new OS for VM 0b0t, a VM on CollabVM, since the 6th revision which was made on the same day the bootleg was found, before being superseded by Windows 7 Pony Edition 2015 on the 8th revision.

Description

The bootleg is a modified Windows 7 SP1 ISO, which has been slimmed down with most of its features removed. It is evidently based on Windows 7 Angry Birds (which was released a few months prior and by a different author) as the folder icons (featuring Angry Birds Space) are the same. The bootleg is known to be unstable, many programs refuse to launch and system functions will break for seemingly no reason at all.

On the first boot of the OS, the user is prompted to optionally install various software through the pre-included post installation wizard by the OS customization tool used to make the bootleg. This prompt does not reappear upon reboot, but can be opened again by opening "Unattended Soft" on the Desktop.

Several of the operating system's images have been replaced with a graphic displaying the bootleg's name as well as pictures of a child smiling. The background has been replaced with a giant cartoon smiley face on top of a rainbow background.

The ISO was created using RT 7 Lite.

A Short Story of How The Bootleg Was Found

Once upon a time, a mysterious visitor (later on turned out to be the Prime Minister of Computernewb.com) stepped out of an expensive limousine (which also turned out to be the Dartz car) and emerged in Crusty Windows property and holstered a certain item that was highly sought after and was thought to be lost to time. "Hello all, I do not check on the Computernewb castle and its subdivisions often, but I heard by my royal transmitter that you cronies have been seeking a particular object which you have considered to be very important in your so-called "Crusty Windows" expedition. I am a man of many fields and colors who considers themselves a jack of all trades, and I happen to have many contacts far and wide which I have established over various decades of professional experience working in many fields of expertise, so I have tried to locate the ISO image myself to see if I could assist in your expedition and I have turned up with great success, unlike how you cronies have been unsuccessfully searching with no luck for many months, possibly years. So please, ladies and gentlemen, line up in an orderly fashion and gaze with reverence and amazement!", the man explained.

As the man pulled what looked to be a jewel case which held the aforementioned object, which was revealed to be a shiny CD, out of his deep pocket filled with priceless jewels and free Xbox Live gift cards, the crowd had already lined up like the man had instructed, with tears in their eyes and dead set on the object that the man was holding. Then, the crowd exploded in excitement and was raving at the news! Many testimonies were shouted with ecstasy, with such memorable quotations like: "OH MY GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!!!!!!", "WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT??!?!?!?!?!?!", "This can't be real!!", "There is NO way this is real! It can't be possible! It just CAN'T!", "I don't believe my eyes...!", "holy shit lmao", ";vdfjlqLJGAELROPGflpkoaGOBREKAE{RAAAAAAAAAGASDGAKOHGDERA", and best of all: "I'M GOING TO CUM IN MY PANTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" and more of where that came from!

The members of the Crusty Windows institution congratulated the man for taking on such a brilliantly-executed search and significantly helping a fledgling niche community and its noble cause by many orders of magnitude, and then declared the following day one of the most important landmarks in Crusty Windows history. The CD was then inserted into the Crusty Windows development computers and was burned with sophisticated and ingenious methods (underpaid intern clicking "Burn CD..." in the Explorer command bar), and then was transferred on a secure connection to the grand Crusty Windows vault on the same day.

The End.

Changes from Windows 7

  • The setup background has been changed with a giant cartoon smiley face.
  • The start orb has been replaced with a smiley face.
  • The background has been replaced with the same smiley face from the setup pointing a finger at the user.
  • The "logging on" screen has been replaced again with the same cartoon smiley face.
  • The "Computer", "Network", "Recycle Bin", "Control Panel", and user folder icons have all been changed. Explorer has also had some icons changed.

Software

  • Adobe Flash Player
  • BSPlayer Pro 2.58.1058
  • CCleaner 3.11
  • Firefox 15.0b3
  • TeamViewer 7.0.12313
  • UltraBoss
  • VLC 2.0.3
  • Yahoo Messenger 11
  • Winamp
  • WinRAR 4.20

Software on the CD

  • AdGuard 1.10.1525.0
  • Your Uninstaller! v7.3.2011.04 (Installer in Russian)
  • Windows 7 Manager 3.0.0 (with Russificator)
  • RemoveWAT (2.2.5.2 and 2.0)
  • ChewWGA

Notes

  • In Setup, many special symbols do not render correctly and check boxes look rather strange. The former is due to Marlett, a system font needed for various system symbols not loading in properly, and the latter may be due to a theme issue.
  • During the OOBE portion, the dialog is rendered in Classic mode, probably due to DWM breaking.
  • The included AdGuard installer on the CD is an online installer and therefore cannot be installed because the original servers where the files were hosted are no longer up.
  • Antiviruses (notably Avast) tend to detect explorer.exe as Virut and will attempt to delete it, crippling the system.
  • Occasionally a bug will occur where the logonui wallpaper is replaced with the one from the Angry Birds edition.
  • The icons for the Recycle Bin are switched, with the full icon being empty and vice versa.

  1. ↑ This is a reference to a small inside joke which started the day 7 FaceBook Edition 2012 was found and was installed as the main operating system on VM 0b0t.

    The former part "I WAS HERE 2022" is a reference to when collabvm-csharp-user said it on VM 0b0t while the bootleg was being installed, and the latter part "FUCK YOU JOE BIDEN" and "WE WON YOU LOST" is a reference to how Joe Biden was involved in the infamous take down of the file host Megaupload, where Windows 7 FaceBooK Edition was hosted, and an excerpt from a text file that was on the original snapshot of the early FaceBooK-era VM 0b0t snapshots.
