Hello guys, today I'm going to show you how to make your linux look like windows with just one click!
this trick first appeared in GnackTrack OS to make social engineering easier, because people will totally think that its just a normal windows XP working here.
Now the same guy who made GnackTrack released the script for all the Distros out there. It says it's for backtrack, but I've tried it on a simple Ubuntu and it worked. you just have to run it as root else you won't see your old linux look again! xD
the picture above is a Backtrack 5 R3 Gnome edition, as you can see it totally like windows XP (really cool right? :P)
So I will tell you how to do this to your linux also
[#] First Method
If you're using backtrack or a distro which run as root user it will be really simple, just Click Here to download the program then install it and you will be able to start using it. (Look at video bellow for more understanding)
For other systems, you will have to do somethings first to be able to run it. Follow those steps:
1. Click Here to download the program, then install it.
2. Open your terminal and the following command:
sudo su
then you will be asked for root password put it, now you're root. now run the following command:
cd /pentest/misc/LookLikeXP/ && ./LookLikeXP.sh
First you will get a pop-up warning saying that your system will look totally like windows XP click "Yes"
Then Your terminal will look like this:
You're done! Your system is in windows XP theme now!
Now how to restore this?
Easy, run the following commands:
First sign in as root:
sudo su
Put your password, then run this command:
cd /pentest/misc/LookLikeXP/ && ./Restore_Settings.sh
That will restore Your system to GNOME look again!Always remember RUN THIS AS ROOT! RUN THIS AS ROOT! RUN THIS AS ROOT!
Else you will not be able to see your original look again!
