As some have pointed out, the reason the .deskthemepack file didn't apply was because the system's locale wasn't set to Japanese. I've confirmed that it works just fine when you change it.
right, a lot people thinking same because some "windows" programs, games, files, zipped files, etc that designed for japanese pc, usually will messed up when run/install it on non-japanese locale. but glad the .rtf file are already using utf-8 or it will messed up like alien's words readme
9:17 and 10:29 | The phone on the desk is the Fujitsu Toshiba IS12T, a Windows Phone 7.5 device launched exclusively in Japan in august 2011 (This pre-dates the first Nokia Lumia by about 3 months). If I remember correctly this was the first phone with WP7.5 as its O.S.. It was also available in black and a lime-ish color.
The .deskthemepack might not have worked since you don't seem to be running a Japanese Locale. Often times Japanese games/applications just don't run on English locale PCs because of how the different locales handle a few critical things differently with respect to software.

I'm gonna be a hipster and shill my love for the pre-Nanami fan-made OS tans. The new ones feel way too safe and boring. Also, while I can't think of an anime focused around PC building, there's one manga for Ubuntu that acts as a cute ad/instruction manual. I'm certain that there's one technical manga from that company that does those "The Manga Guide to X", that fits a similar bill. There are a few anime that have PC/computer building in one scene. With all the VTubers playing PC games in greater numbers than in the past, I wouldn't be surprised if there was some cheesy light novel with an overtly long and expository title that would probably be some mediocre anime in two years.
You need to have a Japanese language pack to be able to apply those themes. a moon ago i looked at the Nanami CDs since i got the ISOs from somewhere and i had the same issue with the themes on there.
I really wonder why Microsoft doesn't advertise windows with OS-tans here in Europe and in Germany, Anime fans are everywhere (and i find the 8-tans really cute)
Because, no offense, the average person that actually buys windows products would feel a little embarassed to buy something in public with an anime girl in the box.
Because it's culture related people in Japan won't mind getting a box with an anime character. Like how many people will actually want an anime version of everything. There's a market for It yes. But it's not on a scalable size to mass produce.

Btw, on windows 8 there are two girls because one of them is for windows 8 on PC and one on tablet. The one with long hair is the one for tablets that's why they focus Yuu more here.
I loved 8.1, it was so nippy and fast. The start menu never bothered me, it's not that hard to use and honestly I wasn't using it much. I don't know why people hated it, maybe because people don't like changes?
For me, in general, Windows versions post 7 were only downgrades. Very few new features I care about, removal of the ones I did care about. Also I hate the minimalist trend, so I hated how Windows 8 looked, and still dislike how Windows 10 and 11 look, much prefer Windows 7's Aero. It's not disliking change, it's disliking these changes in particular. Back when 7 came out I switched as soon as I could and was excited to try it.
One note: The theme can be aplied without changing language to Japanese.. Just change format from .deskthemepack to .themepack. Changing format can also make it work on windows 7,8.1 and possibly 10 (didn't tried). FOr me it worked perfectly on windows 7

Ah, Lumia... This brings back memories when I was daily-driving Lumia 830. The UI looked cool, but never liked the Windows 10 OS otherwise. It was slow, and app market is just laughable. Though iOS API bridge thing was neat, because the new Facebook app is based on the iOS version, and it basically looked like iOS app. And in early versions of the new Facebook app, the back button didn't work at all, so that you are forced to use iOS gestures on Windows Phone!
I never used 8 or 8.1 on any of my machines. One of many reasons was how Microsoft has "flattened" everything. I also find it strange, that one of wallpapers has Nanami and Yuu alongside - usually Microsoft wants people to forget about previous versions of Windows ASAP.
Either that or the region is set to English/USA. I installed japanese games and some of theme are sensitive to the region locale, because the names of files and folders are not Unicode, maybe if he goes to the region settings changes the locale to Japanese it will work.
Even in Windows 10, the settings are locked behind activation but using the classic Personalization Control Panel work. For this deskthemepack file, you must either set your system locale to Japanese (Japan) or run as Japanese using Locale Emulator.
What sucks is that it’s Windows 8, with a such a unique mascot, is butchered by a horrendous OS (but I’ll still buy it because it’s such a unique product by Microsoft)
Windows 8 itself isn’t bad, it’s how it was marketed. Microsoft marketed it as a version fit for both worlds of desktop and mobile, while the OS didn’t really show that very well and made users upset. It wouldn’t be until Windows 11 that we got a perfect balance between mobile and desktop ui.
@@lemonadesnake They should be different operating systems. Different GUIs built for PC, and tablets. Do you want to use your PC as inefficiently as a tablet?
I think the .deskthemepack doesn't run due to Japanese text in the name of the files associated with it. Either set your system locale to Japanese (Japan) or run the .deskthemepack file as Japanese using Locale Emulator.
Hi Michael! In the country I live there is a local sales site where everyone can sell their stuff. There is currently a sealed copy of Windows 2000 Server Edition on sale (with bids).

Is it possible that you only have one of two discs? There is only one girl printed on the CD, and you mostly have voicelines of one girl. My guess is that you have the "You" disc and there is also "Ai" disc.
@@TheNurvcom A DVD isn't necessarily 4.7GB, an iso of a DVD is only as big as its contents. In the case of Madobe Yu disc, the iso is 15.2MB as shown at 4:01 of the video. The torrent shows up as 77MB as that includes the scan of the disc design/label which is 58.4MB and the other metadata from the Internet Archive post (i.e. title, description, list of files).
As some have pointed out, the reason the .deskthemepack file didn't apply was because the system's locale wasn't set to Japanese. I've confirmed that it works just fine when you change it.
Running the .deskthemepack file as Japanese using Locale Emulator also works.

I'm wondering if the theme doesn't work because the OS is not fully license activated so it disables personalization options.
Either that or the region is set to English/USA. I installed japanese games and some of theme are sensitive to the region locale, because the names of files and folders are not Unicode, maybe if he goes to the region settings changes the locale to Japanese it will work.
The Theme packs are language locked
@@JeffreyPiatt That's it then. He can try changing the locale and languaje to Japanese or download a japanese version of windows 8.
Even in Windows 10, the settings are locked behind activation but using the classic Personalization Control Panel work. For this deskthemepack file, you must either set your system locale to Japanese (Japan) or run as Japanese using Locale Emulator.
@@Golecom2 Only the system locale needs to be Japanese.
Also I love the updated artstyle!
person:oh hey wanna see my computer?
persons friend:ok
persons computer: 10:31
1:12 Thanks for my new Steam profile picture
imagine if the software etc.. could work somehow on WIndows 10. Well, techically it should. Sadly, there doesn't seem to be any Windows 10 os tan.
Actually there is - Touko Madobe.
There doesn't seem to be one for Windows 11, though.
@@TommyAgramonSethwould it be more accurate to say there isn't one yet?
@@daemonspudguy I think it's too late for an official one as they were always related to the launch event in the past.
TIME TO ARCHIVE! If I can find a copy online...
Edit: Awww You beat me to it old friend! :)
Thank You So Much Bud
What sucks is that it’s Windows 8, with a such a unique mascot, is butchered by a horrendous OS (but I’ll still buy it because it’s such a unique product by Microsoft)
This is the difference between an uneducated end user and cyber professionals.
Windows 8 isn't that bad, is the same experience as Windows 7 as long as you install something like startisback or open shell
Win8 is fine with classic/open shell but without it its complete dogshit
Windows 8 itself isn’t bad, it’s how it was marketed. Microsoft marketed it as a version fit for both worlds of desktop and mobile, while the OS didn’t really show that very well and made users upset. It wouldn’t be until Windows 11 that we got a perfect balance between mobile and desktop ui.
@@lemonadesnake They should be different operating systems. Different GUIs built for PC, and tablets. Do you want to use your PC as inefficiently as a tablet?
MJD, you can rename the deskthemepack to zip, open it, and get the theme file, wallpapers, and sounds.
Hope they will have anime window 10 and 11
There is windows 10 but there isn't 11 yet bruh
I have the funniest idea of someone in an office with this set up just tapping away at the computer thinking "end me please"
I think the .deskthemepack doesn't run due to Japanese text in the name of the files associated with it. Either set your system locale to Japanese (Japan) or run the .deskthemepack file as Japanese using Locale Emulator.
This theme is Amazing.
Hi Michael!
In the country I live there is a local sales site where everyone can sell their stuff. There is currently a sealed copy of Windows 2000 Server Edition on sale (with bids). The highest bid is currently 60 Euros (61.17 USD). I was wondering if you were interested in me buying it for you on your account and then shipping it to you? If you want the link let me know! Alex
Best unboxing video i ever seen
Is it possible that you only have one of two discs? There is only one girl printed on the CD, and you mostly have voicelines of one girl. My guess is that you have the "You" disc and there is also "Ai" disc.
Yes because he made a follow-up video with another one. Guessing it's ai.
Man, just the box itself looks amazing.
*quality content*
This is the "Yuu" (the younger girl of the two) edition. There should also be an "Ai" (the older girl of the two) edition.
please make a iso copy of the cd i would love to try it
I also wondered about that and the link for it is in the video description. Michael uploaded it to the Internet Archive.
@@ptzzzs it not full copy of the dvd. it only 77mb torrent or 16mb iso.
@@TheNurvcom He uploaded all the contents as shown at 4:01
@@TheNurvcom A DVD isn't necessarily 4.7GB, an iso of a DVD is only as big as its contents.
In the case of Madobe Yu disc, the iso is 15.2MB as shown at 4:01 of the video.
The torrent shows up as 77MB as that includes the scan of the disc design/label which is 58.4MB and the other metadata from the Internet Archive post (i.e. title, description, list of files).
Linode reallly loves you lol
Is this going to be an ongoing series
Nice video :)
There's probably another pack with only the sister Ai instead of You, maybe another version (Home? )
Anime and technology combine? Awesome! Os-tans seem really かわいい (cute) and cool! Excited to learn more about them and THEY HAVE COSPLAYS??
Aight, we all gonna wait for a windows 10 cd now
Fun fact: the "J" in MJD stands for Japan 😂
Btw what does MJD really mean?
who know

I always assumed it was his initials, like middle name James or something, but now that mention it I actually have no idea

now i need similar of these themes for windows 10 and windows 11...
I think the reason Microsoft stopped waifus is that they realized waifus can't fix their OS
That’s why Windows 11 still doesn’t have a OS-Tan I guess
OS-Tan Waifu version of Clippy.. I would sign up with a monthly subscription to that
Is that why Arch Linux and Kali users have wallpapers at best whereas Windows had some fancy programs that at least provided some interaction?
@@dufferzzzzz Clippy with a waifu dress and anime eyes.
Now you should do the Windows 10 DSP Anime Pack thing
何だこれ面白すぎるｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗ
めっちゃ欲しい〜〜〜！！！
