Windows Dream Vista is a bootleg Windows XP SP3 edition, which was created as part of the Dream Vista trilogy, by Tarek Sadek (also known as Tarek Sadek El Harony). It released on June 2, 2012, and was added to the archive either in late 2021 or early 2022.

Description

The bootleg is a modified Windows XP SP3 ISO. It is styled after Windows Vista, as the name suggests. It comes with 3 new themes, 84 wallpapers, and registry tweaks. It comes with its own autorun, and WPI named Beauty Tools, which consists of customization utilities. It is unattended, and preactivated.

A program that automatically cycles the wallpaper has been added to the OS. The wallpaper will now get cycled every boot.

The autorun was made with AutoPlay Media Builder.
