Kimberly 1.0

Kimberly 1.0 is the first version of the Kimberly Operating System, based on Windows XP.
It was released to manufacturing and available for general retail sales after 3 years of development in October 2017. Development of Kimberly began in late-2013 when Windows XP was only a few months away from ending extended consumer support, and the young child wanted to help XP users with a promised secure interface while still keeping the Windows XP aesthetic. The OS project was announced in fall 2014 during a Microsoft Store Tour; and development began not so shortly by November 2014. Fortunately, Kimberly was able to complete the project by 2017, after couple years of delays.
Kimberly is similar when it comes to OS features to Windows 10 and 7, but features the all-Windows XP aesthetic. The OS features more security improvements and compatibility than vanilla Windows XP and is more stable to today's standards. The OS is compatible with UEFI and Secure Boot; and works on computers made in years between 2002-now, but due to how many features, performance improvements and all that, the OS would run fine on computers made after the Windows 8-era. Kimberly would also run very slow on a computer built in 1997 should the OS be installed successfully.
Upon its release, Kimberly received generally positive reviews, and the Windows 10 marketshare quickly decreased as people begin to deploy the OS. Kimberly is praised for older Windows software compatibility alongsides modern, but critics also concern over the Windows XP interface and some other departments.
Kimberly's setup process is different than Windows XP. It is similar to the installation process of post-Windows Vista versions, and upon starting the OS for the first time, most new computers would show a intro video with sound (since the OS preinstalls all drivers on most new computers). The intro video of Kimberly 1.0 cannot be skipped. (Click here for Kimberly opening movie song)
This is only the beginning.
