WinPET Help
Keyboard Shortcuts
CTRL + F = Shortcuts
CTRL + C = Customize (from home screen only)
CTRL + H = Home
CTRL + S = Sound ON/OFF
- Right-clicking in the menus stops all icons from scrolling
- On the home screen, you can move WinPET by holding CTRL and the directional keys
Hiding/Minimizing WinPET

By clicking the Minimize button in the top right corner, WinPET will be minimized to the system tray. You can restore it simply by double clicking the Icon.
Starting WinPET with Windows
In every Start menu, there is a folder called ‘Startup’. The shortcuts in there will automatically load when you log into Windows. By placing a shortcut to WinPET in this folder, it will start automaticlly. The Startup folder is located in
Windows XP: “C:\Documents and Settings\YOUR NAME\Start Menu\Programs\Startup”
Windows Vista: “C:\Users\YOUR NAME\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup”
Shortcuts
You can save links to your favorite programs and websites on the shortcut screen. The first three shortcuts will also be accessable from the top left corner of the home screen. To edit your shortcuts, click the ‘Edit Shortcuts’ icon in the corner of the shortcut screen. In the ‘Shortcut manager’ you can change the target path and write a custom name for your shortcut. To remove a shortcut, leave the name and path space blank. To add a program or file on your computer you must find and paste the full path of the file. Right-click on the file and click properties. Copy the link next to “Target” and paste it into the slot in WinPET. You can do the same with an internet URL, or simply type in the URL. When you are finished adding the shortcuts, click OK to save and move on to the next 3 shortcuts. You can press CTRL+S at any time to return to the shortcut manager without saving your changes.
Media/IM/Browser Shortcuts
WinPET has shortcut slots for the most popular/well known media player, browsers, and IM Clients. Setting up these shortcuts is as simple as the others; all you have to do is find the file path and paste it into WinPET. Unfortunately, WinPET cannot ‘auto-detect’ the location of your applications.
Moving WinPET


Unfortunately, you cannot move WinPET by clicking and dragging. On the home screen, by holding CTRL and the directional keys, you can change the Position of WinPET on your screen. You can make WinPET float above all other windows by going to the ‘Window Position’ screen in the Customizer and checking the box in the corner. These settings will be reset the next time you open WinPET.

hi i was just wondering could this become my desktop? or what ever it is call u know like when i turn on my computer it will be windows pet what ill be seing or is it just a little window like it looks now?
August 15, 2008 at 12:43 am
Hi. WinPET cannot be used as your ‘desktop’. You can make WinPET start when you turn on your computer by copying a shortcut into your startup folder (More info on the WinPET HELP page)
August 17, 2008 at 9:59 pm
ummm… does it cost to get winPET? how much memorey does it take up? i have a hp laptop
August 17, 2008 at 10:02 pm
It’s Free, and it’s only 7MB.
August 17, 2008 at 10:08 pm

August 17, 2008 at 10:11 pm
if you come up whith the net battleing program how will you use battle chips? will thay be added to the program?
August 17, 2008 at 10:17 pm
I haven’t thought of that yet, but they’ll probably be built into the program and you’ll have to win them or something.
August 17, 2008 at 10:20 pm

August 17, 2008 at 10:31 pm
PET World is dead now. All the members left, since none of them succeeded in making PET Programs. I don’t go there anymore either.

August 17, 2008 at 11:08 pm
also im the same jake from erlyer just on my desk top
August 17, 2008 at 11:10 pm
Use WinPET XP For Windows 98. It should still work, but you wont be able to use some of the features designed for XP.
August 17, 2008 at 11:13 pm
realy cool!!!!! ty
August 17, 2008 at 11:18 pm
how do i know it wored? i dont see its icon
August 17, 2008 at 11:21 pm
Check your start menu. It hasn’t been tested on anything lower than Windows XP, so i do not know if it works.
August 17, 2008 at 11:27 pm
well i did not find it so shud i try downlouding again cuz it did not go to 100%
August 17, 2008 at 11:28 pm
just 99%
August 17, 2008 at 11:33 pm
I’m afraid i cant help you if it isn’t working on Windows 98. It was created on windows XP FOR windows XP. WinPET Will not harm your computer in any way, and if your parents are stopping you from using it, there is nothing i can do about that either.
And if you have any more questions to ask, please mail them to windowspet.blog@gmail.com. This is not a chat room.
August 17, 2008 at 11:35 pm
well sorry!!!!!!!!
August 27, 2008 at 1:09 am

August 31, 2008 at 2:05 pm
Didn’t you check the main page? There are six new navi in WinPET 2.5.5 next week.
September 3, 2008 at 6:02 am
hi, i just download this program and i love it (yes, something better than having a Roll Otaku on my winodws), anyway, i do a lot of game desing work and i need my laptop and computers set to 1280 X 1024 and because of the size, the PET is kinda small to me, is there a way to make it bigger and is there a way to add new navis cause i had made a desing of a navi myself i would love to have her in this PET
September 3, 2008 at 2:35 pm
You can’t change the size of the WinPET Window. I know what you mean about the size. I’ve used it on some big monitors. You can’t add custom navi either, sorry.
October 24, 2008 at 1:16 am
Um… I just downloaded the newest version 2.5.5 I think. I have an XP and for some reason, I can’t set up the Microsoft Office thing. Everytime I do the setup, it still has an “x” on it. Help!
October 25, 2008 at 1:59 am
Yo! I really love this program! I can feel that in not less than 6 or 7 years, they can produce real P.E.T.’s! This is really cool!
October 25, 2008 at 8:03 pm

October 31, 2008 at 6:58 pm
You can’t. It wasn’t designed to run in fullscreen
November 1, 2008 at 12:55 am

November 24, 2008 at 2:31 pm
Can I kindly ask someone to email me all of the functions and limitation of the PeT system? Please?
November 24, 2008 at 2:49 pm
Can you also make it operational on USBs so that when you plug-in your USB, the pet is executed in it, just like in the show? Well, I got the idea there…
November 24, 2008 at 2:52 pm
The functions are on the info page.
December 7, 2008 at 12:04 pm
