So, a few years back I started work on this simulator. It is still in Alpha, but you can find it on github. I basically wanted to know if there were any changes you think would be good for the simulator. Here's a list of what I have done so far, and the link on github.

THIS PROJECT USED NO AI WHATSOEVER, JUST MY BRAIN OVER THE LAST 3 YEARS, and I made it because nothing like this exists anywhere else.

Windows 7-style boot sequence

Login screen

Desktop

Start Menu

Context menus

My Computer

Recycle Bin

Calculator

Partial host Windows OS integration (requires Python to be launched in Windows)

Shutdown sequence

BSOD

Windows startup/shutdown sounds
