[OFFICIAL] Windows 10 Insider Program

[George P Global Moderator]

I like the changes we've seen so far, the new OOBE account screen looks better, the ability to drag and drop apps between desktops is great and what people asked for on user voice.  I also noticed that universal apps are opening quicker in that build, if they can get store apps to open just as fast as legacy apps then great.

I recently did a fresh install of win10 to on my laptop. Installed all of the drivers, etc. It froze on every boot, so now I'm looking for an oem version of win 8 I can use my bios embedded key with, so my Lenovo acts like the day I got it, because when I used the pc refresh option, it wiped away my recovery partition. (Win 8 STD)

Never thought the current 3D pie chart could turn uglier.

New video.(is the nasty bug shown in this video holding back the build?)

Which "All Apps" screen?

[Ian S.]

Well I hope they ditch the circle chart for a bar and one that breaks it down like in storage sense for WP.

 

ohh, I know its pre-release but the Network flyout login UI is U-G-L-Y.

 

Yea, also what's the point of making the Start button smaller? Isn't that something that shouldn't be focused on right now?

That's hardly a "nasty". It crashes and comes back almost immediately.

There was a Neowin article (https://www.neowin.net/news/windows-10-search-functionality-updated-in-upcoming-builds) which mentioned that search and Cortana will be moved within the new Start Menu. Once this change is complete, my guess is that they will probably remove the search bar and reduce the overall size of the taskbar probably to reduce the amount of vertical screen space it takes up; I hypothesize that they are just reducing the size of the Start Button and the launchers so that they can shrink the entire taskbar once the updated Start Menu with search is implemented (from the way things are looking with the recent leaks it probably will not be in the next build, but who knows).

Thoughts confirmed - Build 10036 is even uglier [ the worst so far ] .

I do tend to like the size of the Windows 8 taskbar / icon size. Hopefully this is something that can be adjusted.

I was talking with a mate about this ... still unknown ... but users would definitely want to revert the Windows 8 taskbar / icon size back to its origins .

I absolutely loved everything showed in this latest video. I can't wait to try it all out.

[Dot Matrix]

That video looks great! Love the new modern look to everything!

OMG! OMG! OMG! They finally changed the Windows 95 disk space pie chart:

You want some whine with the pie?

Too bad, they didn't use the lime color.

LMAO! Hahahahahahahahahaha! XD

They changed the pie chart but they should really change the whole properties dialog box/window. This should happen system wide, they all need to be redone now.

[indospot Veteran]

I agree, it should fall more in line with the Settings app.

[George P Global Moderator]

Yeah, that's probably the best way to redo them now, make them all look like the Settings app does. The problem is that there are a bunch of them around the OS, don't know if they can do them all quick.

 

Hell, if they can't redo them in XAML, then I'm perfectly happy with them being done in WPF. Anything to get away from GDI/GDI+.

Since they are modernizing pretty much the whole Windows I'm sure it will be done eventually. We just have to be patience.

And build 10036 has been leaked, most possibly by WZOR himself.

I don't think WZOR leaked it. Faikee and some other please correct me if wrong.

Faikee doesn't do leaks.

And hounsell leaked it, not sure who the original source of the leak was, but hounsell is the one who is sharing it.
