'''Windows ME Year of Luigi''' is a bootleg [[:Category:Bootlegs based on Windows 9x|Windows ME]] edition, which was created by Windowsi3DS. It released on March 10, 2014, and was added to the archive on December 11, 2021.
== Description ==
The bootleg is a modified Windows ME distribution, which is packaged in the Ghost 12 image format, which has to be restored through a separate [[:Category:Bootlegs which install via backup software|Norton Ghost]] utility. The download link for this bootleg is an ISO image that contains the original .GHO file.
The OS itself was created for and named after the "[https://www.mariowiki.com/The_Year_of_Luigi Year of Luigi]" event, which was created by Nintendo to celebrate Luigi's 30th anniversary. As a result, the OS has been changed around to be more "Luigi" themed as well as including additional software.
This bootleg was originally created in a Virtual PC 2007 VM, meaning if you install it on there you will need Virtual PC Additions. If you install it on VMware, you will need to install VMware Tools. For VirtualBox users you will need SciTech Display Doctor/SoftGPU.
== Changes from Windows ME ==
=== Look and feel ===
* New default theme, and background color. The background color has been changed from light blue to an eye-piercing lime green color. The titlebar color has been set to lime green
* New icon set. The My Computer and My Documents icons have been changed into an icon of Luigi's hat. The Recycle Bin icon has been changed to a red, more "modern" looking icon. Bizarrely, the Network Neighborhood icon has been renamed to "Connect Pre-Server", and the icon has been changed to a database icon
== Software ==
* Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.20
* Resource Hacker 3.6.0.92
== Notes ==
=== Bootleg quirks ===
* The Mozilla Firefox profile both has cache and history for WinWorldPC. (obviously)
* The icons for the desktop icons are all stored in <code>C:\Icon</code>.
* Internet Explorer's shell has been removed from the system.
== Gallery ==
