3/21/2011

This package is a Feature Pack in the category User Interface\Windows Shell. The name of the package as it appears on disk and for use with some command-line tools is WinEmb-Interface-Explorer.

This shell provides the same rich UI environment as Windows 7. However, this package does not include any binaries or resources. It is only a flag to indicate that you have chosen the Windows Explorer shell.
