Windows XP build 2442

Windows XP build 2442 is a build of Windows XP. Some screenshots and videos of this build have been shown in Simplified Chinese.

This build is mentioned in various posts on the Chinese Software Developer Network (CSDN), including a thread about installing drivers for a modem from May 2001, or two threads about timebomb removal from July 2001. This means that the build leaked online between its compile date (17 February 2001) and the date of the first post (22 May 2001).

As of 2020, the build hasn't been leaked to the public. BetaWorld claims to have a copy of this build, but they chose not to share it. On 20 October 2020, BetaWorld user MacAdmin uploaded a picture of a Chinese CD named "KEE-044" containing the build.
