These re-skinned Windows editions bring back memories. I remember back in the day when Vista came out, I've installed a Vista re-skin on my PC with Windows XP x64 Edition. So it would look like Vista but still be XP. Had it for a long time, until Windows 7 came out. I actually used to make kind-of bootlegs myself, Windows 7 installations with all updates to date and a bunch of software (Office stuff, archivers, media players, etc.) pre-installed. No re-skins or anything, just software. Later did that with Windows 10. When Microsoft switched to using WIMs for installation (since Vista), it became incredibly easy to make custom Windows builds. All you had to do is install what you want on top of a clean OS, run sysprep and create a WIM image of the disk, which you would then copy to a Windows DVD image, replacing the stock install.wim.
linux distros will come with a themed desktop enviroment and some random shit to make your command line experience tolerable, windows distros come with the cryptominer pre-installed
So apparently winrar crystal edition was a special winrar version made for its 15th anniversary, it just had a different theme applied. I couldn't really find much else about it besides an old usenet post

I did actually play Mario Forever back in 2008, probably downloaded from a shovelware game website. It's essentially an (unauthorized and uncredited) clone of the Super Mario All-Stars version of SMB, but also using music from Super Mario World in some levels.
This takes me back, I used to collect ISOs of all these and just check them out, they even had their own little dumb company names and groups. Its quite the rabbit hole.
Real and funny story: a friend of mine used to work for a big UIX company back in the 2000s and early 2010s. The company basically collaborated with other AAA companies to help them create the most intuitive GUI for their products. This company constantly received applications from design newcomers, as some positions could be done online, from a distance even back then; but the company had a very strict and particular rule: automatically reject applicants from India and Arab countries. It wasn’t a racial thing, mind you, but it was a rule almost solely based on these bootlegs and the very heavy handed and tacky design language so popular in those regions back then.
How tf isn't that racist lmao "yeah, that entire kind of people does it exactly the same, awfully bad, so we must discriminate against entire race for that factor". "I won't hire african americans because I've had some bad experiences with some of them". That isn't racial either, right?
I mean I can’t say I blame the company for that, because I genuinely wouldn’t be able to find one of these that didn’t look like someone threw up all over them
7:25 I remember this Mario clone, it was very good game, except I think I played in 3.1.1 version. I also played Chicken Invaders, Deluxe sky jump, Heroes 3 and Worms world armadegon those were very popular in Poland long ago.
these are all official, I have no idea what your talking about. I use Windows Angry Birds 7 every day and I love it and I'm never going to switch (unless of course they finally release Windows Angry Birds 11)
Considering how many Gangster Version memes are around recently in the last year, I am surprised no one actually went and made a XP Gangster Edition mod for real.
I remember installing one of these when I worked at the school district on an older computer (around 2007) and it having a ton of X rated pictures on it for the wall paper.
I remember being able to customize your install of Windows. I had a blast changing things around. It was pretty easy to do, back then, too. You could find a lot of high quality creations onliine.
I salute your commitment... i was in PAIN, looking at the monstrosities... I've been rolling my own since the NT4 days and i think these will give me PTSD... I always thought Luna was "Windows Toys'r'Us" but now i feel like it was a somber, good taste theme... Anyway, thumbs up for the multiboot one. Hiren's was and still is nice to have, (depending on timeline) (Norton) Partition Magic/Acronis Disk Director, Norton Ghost/Acronis True Image and later Kaspersky's own "AV bootdisk". Shame that all these bootlegs seem to go "form over function" for the most part. Like they were put together by 14 year olds :P
For the past couple months I’ve been on a quest to recover some old versions of utility software and for all their faults some of these weird Windows distros are some of the only place the installers / serials exist. Goofy as they may be, they have some value to me and gives us a fun little time capsule to explore.
I kinda want to make a win 3.1 bootleg especially tailored to MJD and include every trope like having the desktop say gold 3.1 win Microsoft right at the top in 82 font
About the Mario Forever game bundled with Gold XP 2009, I actually have a later version of it (v3.0 instead of v2.16). The game is now maintained by the successor to Buziol Games, which is called Softendo. And yes, it IS a Polish game.
I worked as a tech in a repair shop for a few years in the mid to late 2000s. I've seen some real bloated bootlegs. They were extremely prevelent during the XP, Vista, Seven days. I ran Malwarebytes on a fresh install of 7 and it was full of Trojans and trackers. I wouldn't install that on anything with data I care about on it, nor would I use the internet with it. Hell I wouldn't let it get close to an Ethernet cable
The Avengers image has to be early MCU fanart, like from 2011, what with Cap's First Avenger suit, the comic-style SHIELD agent suits, Thor with a helmet, and Hawkeye's purple pseudo-comic suit lol
This video just sent me back to a time I had thought I had long past. XD Back around 2009 or so, an old acquaintance of mine had a laptop and because I was "the tech guy" in the group he wanted me to install "Vista Black" on it.
This reminded me of the all those Windows 7 or Vista transformation packs I had installed on my XP machine back in the day. You should make a video about them Michael.
This reminds me of learning how to strip down windows 7 to get it to fit and run well on a xp netbook I had. Was a lot of fun but really through caution to the wind as far as security goes lol
Like you, Mike, I spent countless hours customizing my XP looks, but these folks took it to another level ! Maybe some of those guys are watching this video next to their grand son's says, hey your grandpa did that look at it ! So cool !
Gold xp is made from someone from Pakistan, it was actually my first bootleg, iam from Pakistan. Also i actually had bunch of crappy cds , so many times i combined different versions of bootleg to each other, you can do that by removing cd in certain steps of windows installation and change to cd
This is your best video yet! I remember first watching your channel around 2016, and I remember watching your unofficial/bootleg Windows versions videos that you used to upload a lot. This video just really brings me back to 8 years ago when I watched your Windows XP Gold 2016 and Windows 7 Gold 2016 videos!
actually I'm Arab and Gold XP windows wasn't even Arabic lol , they use the same Arabic letters in Pakistan but a whole different language jus like all of Europe use the same letters , with that being said the 2nd windows "GENIUS" is Arabic and from the creator name's I suppose he is Egyptian (and yes Egyptians are Arabs cuz I'm an one) edit: wtf all of the rest of em are Arabic (Egyptian) too lmao it's really cool/weird/impressing/embarrassing/fun/everything , seeing your people having fun with windows like that instead of buying an official version lol
OMG Avengers still have a second installations screen (again abit literal cuz it's so funny): What was removed from The Windows is new for it's kind: Windows Media Player was removed Internet Explorer was Removed The TACKY games and the Internet games that NOBODY USES was removed (Someone is gunna get triggered cuz i was xD)
Kinda fun video. Those maybe don't look like bootlegs. They look more like reskins. Also, it's pretty neat that you've mentioned Mario Forever. It would be a good choice, if you don't have any ideas for the next video.
I still had XP in like 2010-2012 or so and I remember it feeling so cool when I installed a third party app that gave me the Windows 7 aero theme. Really made the PC feel fresh even though it probably really slowed it down because IIRC it had a single core Athlon 64 and some horrible low end ATI GPU that I had to buy because the original GPU blew up
I had a laugh with these bootlegs when I decided to look for bootlegs other than trimmed down releases. Glad to see just how hectic this stuff can get.

I did actually play Mario Forever back in 2008, probably downloaded from a shovelware game website. It's essentially an (unauthorized and uncredited) clone of the Super Mario All-Stars version of SMB, but also using music from Super Mario World in some levels.
This takes me back, I used to collect ISOs of all these and just check them out, they even had their own little dumb company names and groups. Its quite the rabbit hole.
There will always be a soft spot in my heart for garishly modified bootleg windows XP editions.
Real and funny story: a friend of mine used to work for a big UIX company back in the 2000s and early 2010s. The company basically collaborated with other AAA companies to help them create the most intuitive GUI for their products. This company constantly received applications from design newcomers, as some positions could be done online, from a distance even back then; but the company had a very strict and particular rule: automatically reject applicants from India and Arab countries. It wasn’t a racial thing, mind you, but it was a rule almost solely based on these bootlegs and the very heavy handed and tacky design language so popular in those regions back then.
@0x0fffff yeah. But I did believe him when he said it wasn’t racially motivated.
How tf isn't that racist lmao "yeah, that entire kind of people does it exactly the same, awfully bad, so we must discriminate against entire race for that factor".
"I won't hire african americans because I've had some bad experiences with some of them". That isn't racial either, right?
I mean I can’t say I blame the company for that, because I genuinely wouldn’t be able to find one of these that didn’t look like someone threw up all over them
7:11 Holy frick Mario Forever mention!!!
YOU MISSED THE ADELE THEME ON THE AVENGER OS 🙃
7:25 I remember this Mario clone, it was very good game, except I think I played in 3.1.1 version. I also played Chicken Invaders, Deluxe sky jump, Heroes 3 and Worms world armadegon those were very popular in Poland long ago.
these are all official, I have no idea what your talking about. I use Windows Angry Birds 7 every day and I love it and I'm never going to switch (unless of course they finally release Windows Angry Birds 11)
Omg I remember seeing XP gold at someone’s place when I was young I was so confused lol
Considering how many Gangster Version memes are around recently in the last year, I am surprised no one actually went and made a XP Gangster Edition mod for real.
...it is an actual thing
@@鉄血不死鳥 it's just a boot logo mod
4th screen of Avengers installation bares bad news for us LOL:
The additional Features for this Windows will be in the second presentation (oh NOOO!!)
Never thought I would see a Mario Forever gameplay... on a MJD video of all things. This is mindblowing!
Im shocked he never played it before.
I thought playing that is a universal childhood experience
I remember installing one of these when I worked at the school district on an older computer (around 2007) and it having a ton of X rated pictures on it for the wall paper.
I remember being able to customize your install of Windows. I had a blast changing things around. It was pretty easy to do, back then, too. You could find a lot of high quality creations onliine.
I salute your commitment... i was in PAIN, looking at the monstrosities... I've been rolling my own since the NT4 days and i think these will give me PTSD... I always thought Luna was "Windows Toys'r'Us" but now i feel like it was a somber, good taste theme...
Anyway, thumbs up for the multiboot one. Hiren's was and still is nice to have, (depending on timeline) (Norton) Partition Magic/Acronis Disk Director, Norton Ghost/Acronis True Image and later Kaspersky's own "AV bootdisk".
Shame that all these bootlegs seem to go "form over function" for the most part. Like they were put together by 14 year olds :P
The busy design style for all of these has a peak Myspace vibe to them.
For the past couple months I’ve been on a quest to recover some old versions of utility software and for all their faults some of these weird Windows distros are some of the only place the installers / serials exist.
Goofy as they may be, they have some value to me and gives us a fun little time capsule to explore.
Dear dog the choice of text colors in that Genius install, wow lol
The crossover of the century: *WINDOWS THE AVENGERS!*
Featuring: Windows95Man, SuperXPboy, VistaWoman, and more!
Nice to see windows95man keeping busy after that amazing Eurovision presentation.
Fantastic 7 Ultimate after VistaWoman is very cool too
Having been subjected to that Gold theme for more than a minute, to quote Phoebe from „Friends“ … „My Eyes, My Eyes!!!“
I kinda want to make a win 3.1 bootleg especially tailored to MJD and include every trope like having the desktop say gold 3.1 win Microsoft right at the top in 82 font
About the Mario Forever game bundled with Gold XP 2009, I actually have a later version of it (v3.0 instead of v2.16). The game is now maintained by the successor to Buziol Games, which is called Softendo.
And yes, it IS a Polish game.
I worked as a tech in a repair shop for a few years in the mid to late 2000s. I've seen some real bloated bootlegs. They were extremely prevelent during the XP, Vista, Seven days. I ran Malwarebytes on a fresh install of 7 and it was full of Trojans and trackers. I wouldn't install that on anything with data I care about on it, nor would I use the internet with it. Hell I wouldn't let it get close to an Ethernet cable
ah yes michbows mjd: gold edition
Michealsoft binbows flashbacks.
MichaelShaft Winblows 2009.
@catermelony I know
Always fun to see that 200s PC at work. Still shocked I found it in such immaculate condition.
Add an extra 0
Nope that PC is from the Ancient Greece times.

You should check out Vietnamese Windows bootlegs at some point too. They are quite "high quality (?)".
The Avengers image has to be early MCU fanart, like from 2011, what with Cap's First Avenger suit, the comic-style SHIELD agent suits, Thor with a helmet, and Hawkeye's purple pseudo-comic suit lol
"Direct X 32"
How far in the future is Angry Birds windows that it skipped 22 versions from 7?
11:13 “Please insert next disk with wimp”
Well we don't know what it wants, it might just be calling MJD a "wimp" there.
This video just sent me back to a time I had thought I had long past. XD Back around 2009 or so, an old acquaintance of mine had a laptop and because I was "the tech guy" in the group he wanted me to install "Vista Black" on it.
This reminded me of the all those Windows 7 or Vista transformation packs I had installed on my XP machine back in the day. You should make a video about them Michael.
The fact that some people dont know mario forever nowadays is completely insane to me
I was born slightly too late 😭😭😭 to experience much of xp I barely remember it
I used to play that and Super Mario War or whatever it was called lmao
@@AraiDigital SUPER MARIO WAR IS *TO* *THIS* *DAY* ONE OF MY FAVORITE GAMES
@rastas_4221 Dude i LOVE Pekka Kana 2. I used to play it so much back in the day.
The Windows Avengers one reminds me a lot of Windows 7 Batman v Superman Edition from years back
omg, I'd love to see more windows bootlegs, bootleg stuff is always a trip and havent seen windows bootlegs until now
This reminds me of learning how to strip down windows 7 to get it to fit and run well on a xp netbook I had. Was a lot of fun but really through caution to the wind as far as security goes lol
Like you, Mike, I spent countless hours customizing my XP looks, but these folks took it to another level ! Maybe some of those guys are watching this video next to their grand son's says, hey your grandpa did that look at it ! So cool !
Gold xp is made from someone from Pakistan, it was actually my first bootleg, iam from Pakistan.
Also i actually had bunch of crappy cds , so many times i combined different versions of bootleg to each other, you can do that by removing cd in certain steps of windows installation and change to cd
12:07 How was called that toolbar on the top?? ROCKET DOCK?!
It's like 13y since last time I used it!!! I'm searching that for YEARS.
This gave me really hard flashbacks from way back, wow, what a time it was, so many emotions.
Thank you and best wishes!
In Russia we call them “govnosborki”
ZverCD
good thing i know russian
Vasyan Edition Turbo
thanks didn't know
all slavs will call them 'gówno' or similar, depends on slightly language differences xD but we usually call them simply 'bootlegi'
Man, the times when we trusted CCleaner. Those were the days...
The initial windows install of gold xp background is in Arabic which is read " In the name of God, the most gracious, the most merciful"
Didn't know there were so many Windows bootlegs. Great video MJD!
Win XP Gold Edition is like a crypto bro's fever dream! Sweet Jesus!
I use a verson of windows XP on my vintage P4 PC called windows XP Pro Pirated edition with a Pirate logo when it boots. I love it.
Just use windows FLP
This is your best video yet! I remember first watching your channel around 2016, and I remember watching your unofficial/bootleg Windows versions videos that you used to upload a lot. This video just really brings me back to 8 years ago when I watched your Windows XP Gold 2016 and Windows 7 Gold 2016 videos!
I only run Michaelsoft Binbows
That was a computer repair company, not an OS
@@wolfetteplays8894that was a joke not a fact
actually I'm Arab and Gold XP windows wasn't even Arabic lol , they use the same Arabic letters in Pakistan but a whole different language jus like all of Europe use the same letters , with that being said the 2nd windows "GENIUS" is Arabic and from the creator name's I suppose he is Egyptian (and yes Egyptians are Arabs cuz I'm an one)
edit: wtf all of the rest of em are Arabic (Egyptian) too lmao it's really cool/weird/impressing/embarrassing/fun/everything , seeing your people having fun with windows like that instead of buying an official version lol
the dark deep world of windows bootlegs
yayyyy
SCR profile pic?!?!?!?!?
OMG Avengers still have a second installations screen (again abit literal cuz it's so funny):
What was removed from The Windows is new for it's kind:
Windows Media Player was removed
Internet Explorer was Removed
The TACKY games and the Internet games that NOBODY USES was removed (Someone is gunna get triggered cuz i was xD)
The best thing about XP was it’s GAMES
@@LumemDH IKR?! thats why i said this would trigger people cuz it triggered me! xD
Kinda fun video. Those maybe don't look like bootlegs. They look more like reskins. Also, it's pretty neat that you've mentioned Mario Forever. It would be a good choice, if you don't have any ideas for the next video.
I still had XP in like 2010-2012 or so and I remember it feeling so cool when I installed a third party app that gave me the Windows 7 aero theme. Really made the PC feel fresh even though it probably really slowed it down because IIRC it had a single core Athlon 64 and some horrible low end ATI GPU that I had to buy because the original GPU blew up
Gold XP, also known as IRAQI Windows XP.
I love Gooold!. Seriously it is like the os was made out of melted down rapper chains.
i love how unchained and unhinged some of the text is. theres just a boot screen in there that just has
H
a
S
s
a
N
on the side.
I had a laugh with these bootlegs when I decided to look for bootlegs other than trimmed down releases. Glad to see just how hectic this stuff can get.
Graphic design is my passion ;)
Oh, god, Mario Forever.... Vinesauce flashbacks.
Thank you silly swedish man
10:51the text says the following:
Welcoming you guys.
The first version and not the last one.
Try to benefit from this os.
On all domains.
An os have alot.
Of features
I didn't mess with this. This is who it actually looked
Those bootleg editions of Windows are really scary to look at sometimes. Case in point: Windows Avengers.
Windows XP 7 Genius 2014 definitely wasn't made by a genius
Truly this is the Avengers of windows bootlegs
You didn't even notice that Windows the Avengers had an Adele theme!
gold XP is why i subscribed to you. in the past, i've doing some restoration against this version & ended badly 😂
While these customizations are by and large awful, they are nostalgic. Today's custom builds of Windows are just like... bloatware removers.
I love these goofy "editions" of windows XP.
Back when W7 came out and all my friends moved to it, I spent some time trying some of those weird XP builds.
9:33 good god 4 years later mjd finally show us what Genius look like
Ah yes, my absolute favorite childhood flash game *windows The Avengers* (no but seriously that logo literally looks like it’s from one of those bad flash games on websites like girlsgogames)
This was definitely the best choice of video to watch with a migraine, MY EYEEES!
Avengers Installation Screen is also Arabic and translates to:(im trying to be a bit literal cuz it's hilarious)
Information about "the" Windows you're going to be using:
2013 Updates pack are added
Batches to increase "the" Windows speed are added
Essential programs for "the" windows are added
A programs disk was added to desktop to install what's in it
is "the Windows" grammatically correct in Arabic, or is this person unable to write correctly?
it's a shame people aren't doing this stuff with windows 11.
Yeah it would be an improvement these bootlegs then
