Core Products

kikkeliOS

kikkeliOS is not a standalone operating system, but a customized desktop experience package designed for Windows 11. It modifies elements like the desktop background, taskbar and some other details. Distributed in versioned ZIP files, it includes automated scripts and themed assets to transform the Windows environment into a unique, stylized interface mimicing older systems, like Windows XP.

• Latest version: 2.0 – includes new wallpaper and easier, fully automated install process.
• Installation is done trough the run_installer.bat file.
• Packaged as downloadable ZIP archives.

Other Concepts

kikkeli Corporation has also explored projects like the “kikkelijuhla Internet Service”, though currently it is only in a primitive stage, in the form of a hotspot running occasionally on a phone.
