Interesting launcher over on Google Play.

Turn your UI into a time machine and go back to the Windows XP days.

See: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tf.XPMod Free Beta

A legendary application for Windows Mobile Pocket PCs is back for Android as a launcher that imitates the look and feel of Microsoft Windows XP right on your Android device. It lets you explore your file system and open different file formats using default programs as assigned in your device. It also provides the common file system operations like copy, cut, paste and delete.

(Also works on phones)

While we back in 2001, you may also wanna check out Winzip official app for Android https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.winzip.android (Free)

Pretty cool. I've seen a Windows 7 one as well but it's nowhere near as nice as this :p

OMW Classic, even includes the sounds....

Only use I see for this is as a prank, as you can launch it without making it your default launcher

but must admit would love the explorer part as a stand alone app :)

Edit: Nevamind, can use the launcher as a stand alone app, so no need for one. (shutdown just close the app and you can create a shortcut as normal to start it) and this at 2 MB, color me impressed.

Glad there isn't one which emulates Vista :p

Just turn your tablet back to front, stand in front of a mirror and then use it while someone shines lasers in your eyes... The Vista experience on a tablet. :p

Nice find this XP mod thingy. Much fun.
