WinRewind: Windows 95, XP & 7 Desktop New Tab

Boot your new tab into Windows 95, XP or 7: Start menu, Paint, Pinball, Minesweeper, Solitaire, screensavers, real startup sounds.

Open a new tab and your computer boots up like it's 1995, 2001 or 2009. WinRewind turns Chrome's new tab page into a working Windows desktop. Pick Windows 95, XP or 7 from the boot menu, watch it start with its real boot screen and startup sound, and you're on the desktop: Start menu, taskbar, icons, and windows you can drag, resize, minimize and maximize. ★ THREE ERAS, ONE TAB • 95: the teal desktop, the Start menu with its cascading Programs, the Shut Down dialog • XP: Bliss, the green Start button, the blue windows and Explorer's task pane • 7: Aero glass, the Start orb with search, Libraries and the superbar Switch any time from Log Off or Shut Down. New tabs open the one you picked last. ★ THE PROGRAMS YOU REMEMBER, AS EACH VERSION HAD THEM • Minesweeper, Solitaire and FreeCell, with each era's own cards and art (on 7, the glossy remakes with their animations) • Spider Solitaire (XP and 7) and 3D Pinball Space Cadet (95 and XP) • Paint, with its real tools: draw, save your pictures, set one as the wallpaper • Calculator, from 95's Standard and Scientific to 7's Programmer, Statistics and unit conversion • Task Manager with your computer's real CPU and memory graphs • Screensavers: 3D Pipes, Flying Windows, Starfield, Mystify, Bubbles, Ribbons and more • 7's desktop gadgets: Clock, Calendar, CPU Meter, Picture Puzzle and Slide Show • Notepad, Explorer, the Recycle Bin, Run and the Control Panel • Every program starts with an icon on the desktop: delete the ones you don't need, send them back from the Start menu ★ ACTUALLY USEFUL • My Downloads lists your real Chrome downloads (optional; you're asked first): double-click to open one, right-click to show it in its folder. Downloaded pictures and music also appear in My Pictures and My Music. • Your bookmarks become Favorites in the Start menu and Explorer (optional, read-only; you're asked first). • Type a web address or a search into Run: searches go to your default search engine. • Make desktop shortcuts to your favourite sites, with their icons. ★ STARTS LIKE A REAL PC • The first new tab after Chrome starts shows the boot and welcome screens and plays the startup sound. Every other tab opens straight to the desktop, silently. • Turn the boot screens or the startup sound off in the Control Panel. ★ PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No account, no ads, no tracking, no analytics. • Nothing leaves your computer: your files, notes and settings are stored locally in Chrome. • Works offline.
