Windows 8 PRO/ and ENT x64 and X86 VOLUME leaks!


Recommended Posts

Yes. If you go to Control Panel and show small icons you will find it.

I am not running RT. Will be on RP at least until the public releases. I have until 1/13 to decide and at that time I may just buy the upgrade.

Hi again Javik

Yes, try to add it, and set it to 0

You can always delete it again , if it don't work. I am still downloading, so can't test it yet.

It's Sheza here ;)

I added it, rebooted it, and it's gone! Did I add it correctly?

Can someone explain the built-in Flash build? It shows up in the Control Panel and you can manage its settings, but it isn't in the Installed Programs list.

It's using a build of Flash I've never seen before. Is there a way to uninstall it and then install an official, downloadable version of Flash?

It's built in as was said for IE 10 metro. You can always go to manage add-ons in the browser and turn it off. You can't uninstall it however.

What I'm wanting is to be able to do a carriage return here, doesn't seem to work on Neowin, unless you switch to the non-HTML version of the quick reply. :p

They took the same approach as Chrome and bundled it with IE. But for users who use FIrefox will have to download the non-IE flash separately.

I don't have a problem with Flash being built into IE, except for the fact that some programs use IE and its Flash plugin to render content, and with Windows 8 RP that really ****ing sucked (it was very slow and buggy), so I'm really hoping that at the very least they've improved its performance since it can't be removed.

I installed Windows 8 Pro from the leak and I then tried to acquire a license key using the button provided in the Activation area... Well, it then asked some information for Brazil (my country, IP-related I think) and asked me to fill out a form with the price. Oh, the price... R$ 1.800,00 which is like more than US$ 800,00!! :s

Of course I did not continue to buy the key, but I wanted to report it anyway and see if you guys want to try it out and see what goes :)

Has anyone tried to install the Pro version on Parallels? I get the blue windows logo for a few seconds and then get a blue screen saying "pc ran into a problem," and the cycle continues. Any way to fix it?

Hmm does it display the price only after you click, for example, "Next" after confirming your location details? I might try if there's no risk to me.

It displays the price for the "key and download" and then the price for the DVD shipping. I tried to simulate a PayPal payment, but the process did not complete. There's also a credit card payment... Anyway, I don't know if it may work in the US or if that price is due to a non-genuine upgrade I did with Windows 7 Ultimate.

I also tried Parallels in my MacbookPro and it is running fine, but you have to make sure to update Parallels to the latest 7 version available. Although it is not a 100% compatible, it is working.

Oh my goodness. I am using the sample pictures from the Windows 7 build 7000 beta as my default theme and they are gorgeous in the RTM. Better contrast with the Taskbar blue color. Gonna post a pic.

Odd! This is what I get:

I'm just going to wait for proper driver support. Although it would have been nice to see how much they improved it since the beta, there is no rush for me to use it because I actually need to keep Win7 for legacy purposes for certain software that still doesn't work properly on Win8.

If you mean Windows 8 pricing, it was announced weeks ago that users can upgrade to Windows 8 Pro for $39.99. That is a limited time offer though (expires January 2013). Also, you need a valid license of XP, Vista or 7.

I have to point out that from what I've read, the leaked versions can't be activated unless you buy the full version (meaning the upgrade key that costs $39.99 only works when a previous installation of Windows is detected). There is some confusion with this so don't take my word for it. We'll have to wait and see when the OS is officialy released.

Well, I have Windows 7 Pro SP1 x64 dreamspark license, does it will be eligible for upgrade thingy?

You will be able to upgrade if your licence is legit. You can do a clean install with an upgrade key by just installing this RTM copy thats leaked like normal and open CMD as admin and type

slmgr -ipk <upgrade product key>

then to activate

slmgr -ato

You will now have an activated clean install using a legit windows 8 upgrade licence.

If that does not work just install this RTM copy then put the DVD/USB in again when you have your key and click the upgrade windows option and use your windows 8 key. Then remove windows.old

or

open regedit and find MediaBootInstall in windows 7 this was here "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup\OOBE" just change it from 1 to 0. after this run CMD as admin type slmgr -rearm Now restart the PC and activate like normal Control Panel -> System and Security -> System, or type ACTIVATE WINDOWS into metro search.

Also see here :) http://windowsteamblog.com/windows/b/bloggingwindows/archive/2012/07/02/upgrade-to-windows-8-pro-for-39-99.aspx

Would I have the option to do a clean install though?
@McKay - yes we address that above. You can format your hard drive as part of the upgrade experience.

Most likely all the above stuff i said wont need to be done, your just enter your upgrade key and thats it.

So do you think MS is gonna ban accounts for loggin into the RTM early and activating it with illegal product keys? I really want to run it on VM for development, but scared of doing that.

I doubt it

You can't activate it with illegal keys. Do you mean legit keys?

You mean your live microsoft account banned? the like e-mail account you login with? like just using that account with the key supplied with this ISO? If so then i guess they could, but they wont. Why ban your customers from using a product a bit early.. Would screw them up if your going to be planning to buy the OS heh! your only using it in notification mode you have not committed an offence or anything yet.

Quick Question

I just got done downloading 64 bit of windows 8 Pro and I'm planning on upgrading my current Windows 7 Ultimate to it. Will the keys you guys provided will work? Which key is going to work for me. I plan on buying a key once its Oct. let me know. Thanks

Freak180, I replied to you over at MDL.

I don't know for sure but according to WinUnleaked, you won't be able to with the default install keys. You'll need to buy a Get Genuine Kit. But as Mr Analysis says here, you might just be able to insert your legit key. I don't know.

I know I just wanted to get a second opinion on it. Im kind of confused by that answer. Are you saying the current keys wont allow me to install? I'm not worried about activate since I'm going to pay for the 39.99 for the upgrade later,

    • Ocenaudio 3.19.5 by Razvan Serea  Ocenaudio is a full featured, fast and easy to use audio and music editor. It is the ideal software for people who need to edit and analyze audio files without complications. Ocenaudio also has powerful features that will please more advanced users. To assist ocenaudio development, a powerful toolset of audio editing, analysis and manipulation called Ocen Framework was created. ocenaudio is also based on Qt framework, a well known library for cross-platform development. Cross-platform support ocenaudio is available for all major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Native applications are generated for each platform from a common source, in order to achieve excelent performance and seamless integration with the operating system. All versions of ocenaudio have a uniform set of features and the same graphical interface, so the skills you learn in one platform can be used in the others. VST plugins support Ocenaudio supports VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plugins, giving its users access to numerous effects. Like the native effects, VST effects can use real-time preview to aide configuration. Real-time preview of effects Applying effects such as EQ, gain and filtering is an important part of audio editing. However, it is very tricky to get the desired result by adjusting the controls configuration alone: you must listen the processed audio. To ease the configuration of audio effects, ocenaudio has a real time preview feature: you hear the processed signal while adjusting the controls. The effect configuration window also includes a miniature view of the selected audio signal. You can navigate on this miniature view in the same way as you do on the main interface, selecting parts that interest you and listening to the effect result in real time. Multiselection for delicate editions To speed up complex audio files editing, ocenaudio includes multi-selection. With this amazing tool, you can simultaneously select different portions of an audio file and listen, edit or even apply an effect to them. For example, if you want to normalize only the excerpts of an interview where the interviewee is talking, just select them and apply the effect. Eficient edition of large files With ocenaudio, there is no limit to the length or the quantity of the audio files you can edit. Using an advanced memory management system, the application keeps your files open without wasting any of your computer's memory. Even in files several hours long, common editing operations such as copy, cut or paste happen almost instantly. Fully featured spectrogram Besides offering an incredible waveform view of your audio files, ocenaudio has a powerful and complete spectrogram view. In this view, you can analyze the spectral content of your audio signal with maximum clarity. Advanced users will be surprised to find that the spectrogram settings are applied in real time. The display is updated immediately when altering features such as the number of frequency bands, window type and size and dynamic range of the display. Ocenaudio 3.19.5 changelog: Fixes crashes related to audio devices on Windows (DirectSound and ASIO) Fixes several crashes and memory corruption issues Fixes opening several headerless files at once, which previously dropped all but one Improves batch export by suggesting and remembering the destination folder Fixes accented and non-Latin characters in VST plug-in and compressed-archive file names Adds zstd compression support and updates the archive library Other bug fixes and improvements Download: Ocenaudio 64-bit | Portable | ~40.0 MB (Freeware) Download: Ocenaudio for Linux and Mac OS View: Ocenaudio Homepage | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • I did think about a Echo show once and it would be useful to see what my cameras see. But my brother got one and I changed my mind. Adverts and not really worth the price just to see my cameras. I have a load of dots and a Echo Gen 4, they will do.
    • I asking where you are from or live, because if you don't live in the U.K, why are you so bothered? That is another reason I voted out, E.U and people poking their noses in where they should not be. Sadly we still have it, Trump, and his cronies. Putin as well and no doubt others. It makes no difference what we believe, if we made the right choice or not, we are out. As I said to someone when the news first broke we have voted out, we just need to make the best of it. I have no problems with closer ties to the E.U, we still need to trade. Just don't want to be in their club.
    • So you think I voted out because i am anti-immigrant. I am fed up with those that come over and think that we owe them something. The ones that are at the moment coming over from France where they are already in a safe country because they think and no doubt will get everything chucked at them. While people who were born and bred here get very little. I have nothing against as i have said before those that come here and work. In fact I know full well that our NHS would struggle without them. I do have a problem with those that come over here and try to push their religion and their way of life onto us. My reasons for voting out was because of what the E.U is and is also becoming. I did not agree with Freedom of movement, not because I don't want people over here, but because people need to be checked before being allowed to cross borders and that goes both ways. But my main thing was because the E.U is becoming if not already a united states of Europe. The only reason countries like Poland and Romania joined was because they had no money. When my partner left Poland, she had nothing, Poland had nothing, that is why she left. Wanted to learn something and earn a living. The E.U would have us back according to Michel Barnier. https://www.euronews.com/my-eu...ator-barnier-tells-euronews Why are you so scared to say what country you are in?
