Windows 8.1 Build 9374 (X86) Leaked to Internet

The Start Menu is dead, Jim. It's not coming back in any official fashion.

Would love to see the ability to add tags to any file in Windows, that would make search valuable, that and folder previews which allowed you to show a full photo preview like XP did instead of the half photo perspective view since vista

You cold add tags to files in Windows since Vista...

I don't think anyone noticed or talked about this but in build 9385 they now have a setting for auto scaling the desktop, up to 200% as well. Seems like you don't have to go in and mess with it manually now though I dunno how good it'll work but we'll see.

If you have updated win8.1 9385 apps update(it's not possible now, MS has slammed the door, LOL); the updated "Microsoft.WinJS.2.0.Preview" will show another build 9391: 1.0.9391.3.fbl_partner_out18.130426-2000

Seeing the date and how close we're getting to BUILD, does seem 9400 will be m2/public preview build, they'll run it internally for a few weeks at least before they let us download it officially at the conference in June.
