Unused Theme[edit | edit source]

The source code contains an internal theme dubbed "Ryan's Candy Skeme". While certain elements have been updated to resemble development versions of Mac OS X, several other elements are taken straight from the Professional/Watercolor theme. Judging by the last updated date of July 13, 2000, this was made in-between Windows XP Builds 2250 and 2257.

Unused Screensavers[edit | edit source]

Three screensavers that did not ship with any version of Windows are also found.

  • Dolphin contains 3D swimming dolphins. Likely scrapped due to too much static imagery.
  • Museum presents a user's selected photos in a virtual 3D gallery, zooming in onto pictures. Likely cut due to slight glitchiness and dizziness.
  • Swoosh is a highly dizzying screensaver with multiple colored particles floating downward.
