Windows 8.1 Fortnite Edition is a bootleg Windows Embedded 8.1 edition, which was created by an unknown author. It released in June 2018, and was added to the archive on December 12, 2021. The OS was first uploaded to the (now defunct) CollabVM FTP Server, where the author stated his intentions to submit it to TeamOS.

Description

The OS is a modified Windows Embedded 8.1 ISO. A few components relating to VPNs and the immersive control panel are removed. Other than that, the OS is mostly a stock install.

The ISO was made using NTLite on Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter.
