You could always hide the tabs :). Is this the beta teams idea of a joke ? because if it is it's really not funny.....this thing is a cross between messgner 8 and msn messger 5 (why it bloody hell do they have the old icons back ? but when you signin the icon in the systray is the same darkgreen....)

wow, I cannot imagine why we complained about the previous build's UI when comparing it to this one; this is not an appealing design at all.

I know huh? :p I can't believe I didn't like the other build's UI until I saw this. This build changed my whole out look on Live Messenger.

They better be doing this to put everyones hopes down for the final release UI.

I like the old icons, they just need to make them look a bit more smooth and modern and they will look good. The ones in the last Beta looked pretty horrible and "kiddish" but if they use the old icons and add a bit of shine to them they would be just fine. The new build is a bit less bulky, and some annoyances like the hovering contacts are now gone for good which is a good thing. The colors are better you don't have to choose the Crayola interface as the grey and white look great. It's in the right direction.. it's a "refresh" which means there will be better to come!

Why is no one posting the url for download. What do you think will happen if you do? Oh no someone might get a download that won't work anyways if there not in the beta. Can someone please post it. There is no link in the programs in connect and the build is the same in ideas.live.com.

What is this media player button in the top courner of every window? Why can't I click it?

Where are my display pictures when someone signs in? (found them....ish) Why can't I personalize every window now?

What did they do to the top of the main window? Why doesn't these colours merge?

Why is the squares mixed with round things? Why are my eyes bleeding? Microsoft.....why?

    • For the purpose that it was built for, it’s a great machine. It’s okay to own multiple machines, it’s okay for machines to be different. If every computer was the same, they’d be boring af.
    • OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT memory by Pradeep Viswanathan OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT's memory, making the system more capable, current, and scalable across long-term use. Memory allows ChatGPT to remember useful details about users, including their preferences, projects, and constraints. Instead of starting every conversation from scratch, ChatGPT can use this context to provide more relevant responses in future chats. OpenAI first launched saved memories in February 2024. That feature allowed users to explicitly ask ChatGPT to save information into its memory, such as travel plans or writing preferences. However, this system had limits because it depended heavily on users giving clear instructions to remember something. Additionally, saved memories could become stale over time. In April 2025, OpenAI expanded memory by allowing ChatGPT to reference past chat context outside the saved memories list. This was powered by a background process called “dreaming,” which automatically curates memories from chat history. This made ChatGPT better at learning from natural conversation without requiring users to manually save every detail. Today, OpenAI announced a more capable and compute-efficient memory architecture built on top of dreaming. This new system improves ChatGPT’s ability to carry forward useful context, follow user preferences, and remain accurate as time passes. According to OpenAI’s internal evaluations, the new system improves factual recall from 67.9% in 2025 to 82.8% in 2026. Preference adherence improves from 55.3% to 71.3%, while accuracy over time improves from 52.2% to 75.1%. The best part of this new system is a new memory summary page where users can review ChatGPT's memories. Users can even update details, correct information, or give instructions on what topics ChatGPT should bring up and when. This new, improved memory system is available to ChatGPT Plus and Pro users in the US starting today. It will roll out to more countries, as well as Free and Go users, in the coming weeks.
    • I work for a video production company in Australia. The camera operators shoot footage and then pass the SD card over to the editors. Much easier than handing over the entire camera. Plus, on a busy day you can hand off the SD card and then pop another in for the next shoot. Or, you might have used multiple SD cards because you need the extra space for a long shoot. I also use USB cables and wifi for transferring footage, but in many cases an SD card reader is the easiest method.
