Installation
When using VMware, create a new Virtual Machine with VMware 8.x compatibility.

Unlock hidden features
You can unlock several hidden features in this build like the Metro IE and Settings as well as the new login screen and Explorer UI.
Run an unlock program like Redlock, Metro Unlocker v4 or Red Pill Enabler.

The new login screen and Explorer UI as well as the Start Menu are automatically enabled.

Run the following executables to run the application:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Immersive Browser\Microsoft.ImmersiveBrowser\miexplore.exe for the Metro IE (Immersive Browser)
C:\Windows\System32\SystemSettings.exe for the Metro style settings panel

And probably more as the Webcam, PDF Reader.
