Windows XP Simulator

This Windows XP simulator boots a nostalgic fake XP desktop right in your browser. It is a visual prank and retro toy — there is no real operating system, nothing is downloaded, and nothing is installed on your device.

What you can do

Watch the classic XP boot screen, explore the Luna desktop and start menu, and use the retro interface as a screen effect for videos, streams, screenshots, or harmless jokes. Everything you see is a browser animation.

Why people use an XP simulator

The Windows XP look is a popular nostalgia and prank aesthetic. This page lets anyone open that classic desktop instantly — no old hardware, no virtual machines, and no risky downloads.

Safe and fictional

The simulator is entertainment only. It does not run real programs, read files, or connect to your system. It is part of the SimDeck hacker prank toolkit — see also the cracked screen prank and fake virus scanner.
