What is stopping you from doing it now?

I do not have the final release, it will be likely released tomorrow . I also do not want to wait till 8.2. I have dropped out 3 times and came back. So my absence may be only temporary.

Is it just me, or is 64-bit Chrome (when maximized) cut off on the top and bottom (looks like they extend outside by a few pixels)?

If you have that problem, download TinyWindowsBorders and get rid of the 4px border padding, that gets rid of that issue for me, though I hear it's fixed in the latest builds.

That issue was fixed with build 10388

I haven't upgraded to 14388, i'm still on 14385

Anybody else not able to get the touch numpad on screen on the lockscreen?

I had no problem with the previous version but now, no matter what i do, i can't get it to show up.

 

Edge still has some weird issues with Neowin. Certain articles you can get to if you click on the news part, but clicking on the same article in the mini-spy gives you an error. Looking at the address it always has a weird symbol in it.

 

Quoting doesn't really work. Only if you first click in the teext box and then scroll back up and click quote. Really annoying

 

Liking some ones post sometimes works, sometimes gives an error if you use touch.

I'm finding, apart from the issue with the window borders that there are no stability issues with Chrome on these builds, it's mostly a cosmetic bug. That aside, it certainly feels stable enough to be released pretty soon.

It will be in about 1 hour I think.

It is the RTM

If this is indeed the RTM then you should be able to leave the insider program in this version.

If not it will only allow you to postpone for a few days.

 

Which one is it?

Read what I posted and try to comprehend it. The last Build said Release_escrow. Are you in The IP?

All you are doing is speculating that this will be the "RTM", there is no confirmation from MS yet about this. So please don't tell me i struggle with reading comprehension, we all know that's your thing ;)

 

Yes i am in the insider program. I don't have a very fast internet connection so i don't download every single new version that comes out.

 

Forgot who i read it from, but it's either Thurrott or Daniel Rubino. once the final version is released you should be able to leave the insider program and switch back to the normal releases. If it's not the final version all you can do is postpone the new releases for 1 to 7 days.

 

Since you seem to have installed this, I'm asking you. Can you leave the program now or can you just postpone. That should give you an indication if this is indeed the "RTM" version or not.

I have left the program on 3 separate occasions I started on 02/19/2015 and then I left when it went final to 10240. When 10586 went Final last November I left again. I came back to it again in January and have stayed in since then. Once you become an insider you can drop out and come back as many times as you wish.  I was told that it would go RTM on The 15th of July as it has to get to all of the OEMs before August 2nd when it goes public. I have no idea about the Phone build.

So can you try and leave the program right now if you installed this latest version.

What does it let you do? Postpone Fast/Slow builds for a few days or does it let you select production ring, or whatever it is called.

You can opt out entirely but this is not the RTM I was incorrect in saying that it was. Sorry..

    • This saddens me greatly
    • Well again I do not mind seeing it charge my stuff if it does it well. "yeah charge my phone like that, charge it good"
    • Getting so tired of this push for that new useless slop over the less-useless old slop that at this point I just want M$ to have this nice, big, hearty cup of *FU*.
    • Brave Browser 1.91.168 by Razvan Serea Brave Browser is a lightning-fast, secure web browser that stands out from the competition with its focus on privacy, security, and speed. With features like HTTPS Everywhere and built-in tracker blocking, Brave keeps your online activities safe from prying eyes. Brave is one of the safest browsers on the market today. It blocks third-party data storage. It protects from browser fingerprinting. And it does all this by default. Speed - Brave is built on Chromium, the same technology that powers Google Chrome, and is optimized for speed, providing a fast and responsive browsing experience. Brave Browser also features Brave Rewards, a system that rewards users with Basic Attention Tokens (BAT) for viewing opt-in ads. This innovative system provides an alternative revenue model for content creators and a way to support the Brave community. SlimBrave Neo takes all the good things about Brave and makes them even better by keeping everything clean, light, and privacy-focused. It removes the extra clutter, turns off features you might not need, and cuts down on anything that could slow you down or collect unnecessary data. Because it relies on simple settings and policies instead of modifying the browser itself, you still get full Brave compatibility—just in a smoother, lighter, and more privacy-friendly package.
