Reddit user fraaaaa4 created a Windows 10toxp mod that turns Windows 10 into Windows XP. “Transforming” is the most appropriate word because his work is not just a shell, but a larger project.




The enthusiast managed to recreate the Windows XP shell itself, its standard applications, the boot window, and even the shutdown menu, the background of which is grayed out. Moreover, the mod implements a special mode that allows you to run applications incompatible with Windows 10 for Windows XP.
The only traces of Windows 10 in this modification are “Settings” in the form of a UWP application necessary for the system to work, and “Windows Defender” (although it was successfully removed from the system tray).






According to user fraaaaa4, this is the first mod in his life. He created it because the existing analogs from other enthusiasts “have several inaccuracies and are devoid of programs with icons [из Windows XP]”. The Windows 10toxp mod is based on a pre-activated copy of Windows 10, so it cannot be freely redistributed. But the creator is willing to provide it to anyone who asks for it in posts on Reddit.
