What is Windows 8.1 S14 ?

If you took the time to Bing it:

can they kill the control panel?

I mean do legacy control apps installed by programs show up under settings?

I'd assume it'll remain for a bit for legacy purposes, but overall the goal will be to move to the settings so app.

So who is going to be the first to create a "Control Panel Is Back" or whatever. :rolleyes:

Wait wait, now it is Windows Mobile 10? Uh oh. The last one we had was 6.5, and even that wasn't so old (released/updated in circa 2009). Windows 10 Mobile/Phone would sound more appealing, but the naming could still be subject to change.

LMAO feature? please..

Do explain. I don't understand the purpose of your screenshot. There is nothing in it that looks like a compelling feature when compared with Windows 8.1. Unlike a good amount of members here I do not necessarily worry about petty little things like the Recycle Bin icon (or new icons in general).

I am loving those new icons! Much more professional looking! :)

I still hate them, they are ugly and Microsoft needs the Office 2013 icons, they are much flatter and better as well as darker and easier on the eyes then the highlighter colors.

The download on insider.windows.com's hash is still for the January build (9926) so you'll have to either go through the TP control panel or get the executable upgrade installer.

    • Halo: Campaign Evolved is out next month with new prequel missions

      It is, but it also has a bad performance reputation even on high-end gaming PCs. Some people say it's the engine's fault, others say it's the games developers' fault, who knows... At the end of the day, for the average gamer, the take is this: PC game with Unreal Engine 5? Be affraid and cross your fingers, it's a 50/50 chance.
    • 25th anniversary Xbox Series X unveiled with classic translucent green design

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      25th anniversary Xbox Series X unveiled with classic translucent green design by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The Xbox Games Showcase had a new Xbox console reveal from Microsoft celebrating the gaming brand turning 25 years old. This is to be a new limited edition Xbox Series X and controller collection that draws on the design of the rare green version of the original Xbox console. The "XBOX Series X25 Limited Edition" is coming out later this year with its matching controller. "Inspired by the look and feel of the original XBOX console, both the console and controller feature a translucent OG Green design, with subtle tributes to the journey we’ve been on together," said Microsoft in the announcement. The Xbox Series X|S line has received several new variants over the years, but this will be the first edition with a translucent design. The Xbox Series X25 will have one terabyte of internal storage and a green light on the X to signify the console lines' history. There is a 25th anniversary logo printed on the front plate. Microsoft is also teasing that the community will be able to find "a few hidden surprises throughout" the machine as well. As for the new X25 Special Edition Xbox controller, this is also coming with the classic translucent green design for its front and back plates. "From the original ABXY colors, to the timeless green, every detail calls back to the beginning, including the bumpers honoring the original black and white buttons on the original “Duke” controller," says the company about this release. "The back case and battery door are fully transparent, revealing the classic XBOX logo." The XBOX 25th anniversary collection, containing both the translucent console and controller, will be available for purchase in November 2026 as a limited-edition release. Microsoft will be offering the new XBOX Wireless Controller X25 Special Edition separately as well. Pricing details and pre-order information will be coming later.
