At 100% completion, the screen switches to glitchy static before turning black, with the cursor still visible. After a brief pause, the screen displays a red Windows XP startup animation where the logo is replaced with a red skull with eyes. | ||
Once the user logs into Windows XP Horror Edition, they are greeted by a desktop wallpaper full of skulls, the Start button replaced with text reading <code>''DEAD''</code> and a bloody white hand, and four icons labeled <code>My Computer</code>, <code>NOTHING</code>, <code>DON'T OPEN ME.txt</code>, and <code>Recycle Bin</code>. The desktop background changes to various creepy pictures and glitchy effects, accompanied by [https://youtu.be/6WyH5E8Xs0c Thresh's Theme] from ''[[wikipedia:League of Legends|League of Legends]]''.

Clicking on any programs within the Start menu causes them to disappear. Clicking the icon on the top bar greets the user with a wooden door, which opens after a few moments with a loud squeak sound. The user is then [[jumpscare|jumpscared]] by Lisa from the ''[[wikipedia:Silent Hills|Silent Hills]]'' demo, [[wikipedia:P.T._(video_game)|''P.T.'']], and then is greeted with<code>GO TO SLEEP</code> written in blood on the screen.

The Peaceful version of the software differs from the Destructive version in two ways. First, after the Phantom Balloon Boy jumpscare and fake RSoD, the application simply closes instead of triggering a BSoD and overwriting the MBR.
