Download Awesome “Nyan Cat” Progress Bar Utility for Windows 7

Love Nyan Cat? Addicted to Nyan Cat? If yes, here is an excellent news for you. Now you can enjoy the Nyan Cat with music in Windows 7.

Almost everyday we copy or move files in our systems and now you can just sit back, watch Nyan Cat and listen the music while Windows 7 finishes the copy or move operation.

Ben” @ Instant Elevator Music has developed a small and free tool which replaces default Windows progress bar in copy/move dialog box with Nyan Cat progress bar.

Extract the downloaded ZIP file and run the EXE file. It’ll sit in system tray and now whenever you copy/move a file, Windows will show Nyan Cat progress bar in the dialog box.

You can enable/disable it by double-clicking on its system tray icon. You can also change its settings by right-click on its system tray icon and select “Settings” option.

You can set it to start with Windows, change its volume level, etc.

Currently it doesn’t work in Windows XP but according to the developer, its a bug in animation code and he’ll try to fix it in future version.

PS: We have not checked it in Windows Vista but it should work in Vista as well.

  1. now copying large files would me even more irritating to some people (not me. i love this cat).. hahahahaa

  2. For a gag, I wish someone would come up with a Sarah Palin version. You know, one that forces a copy or move operation to quit halfway through. 🙂
