Make Windows Look like Windows 8 with Transformation Pack

We had previously written a tutorial on how to make your Windows XP look like Windows7, and this time you will be able to install the Windows 8 Transformation Pack to make your computer look more advanced with the advanced graphics and styles for getting the looks of Windows 8 Professional Edition. The current build is not available for Windows 7 or Windows xp users but Vista X86 or X64, SP0, SP1, SP2 users can easily install this.

Before you install any of these transformation tools make sure that you create a Restore Point using the System Restore option because if there is something which goes wrong you may loose your OS because of many errors, hence the restore function can save up everything. The transformation pack is going to change the following :

* Windows Theme or Visual Style
* Login Screen or Welcome Screen
* Taskbar
* Taskbar clock, System try icon & Quick Launch
* Wallpapers
* About Windows Box
* System Properties
* Extra

The new looks of Windows 8 would actually change the taskbar, start menu, Windows Explorer, a different concept login screen ie changes made in background image and text displayed at bottom.

The Taskbar now called as Superbar looks quite similar to Windows 8, by showing the Icons in a row instead of the normal way of showing the Active Running Programs name in the taskbar buttons. While you mouse over this you will get a quick preview of the running programs, bit similar to the Mac OS X Taskbar Dock.
