Its just a skin I think... I downloaded a skin which looked like this... the zip file I downloaded had 2 files in it and I replaced those files with the original WLM8 files... that was it... :)

I don't know if those on the screenshots are skin or a real new build.. :p

lol, no it is indeed real, and not too bad, i like the new icons, but havent been able to ehar the new sounds as most of my contacts have disapeard off now and im stuck with people i dont want to really talk to :laugh:

Calm down buddy...

If you are a true Tester you "should" know that new builds don't get out for all testers in the same time...

Just relax and sit down... it's only WLM...

I've asked since day one for an option to turn off that damn bumper spacing/auto snap to window "feature" or whatever you want to call it where you end up with that ackward spacing at the top of both the contact list and the messenging window. I hate that! If I drag the messenging window up flush with the top of the screen I probably mean that I want it to be there, but no!! the damn thing snaps back down about 30 pixels.

If you can't tell that bugs the crap out of me...and do you think they could just give me an option in there to enable/disable this "feature" of coarse not. :whistle: :angry:

That is one thing I have requested over and over only to be ignored. To be honest I am getting really annoyed with the so called beta testing process where they supposedly listen to your feedback. I would bet money that I am not the only one that finds this to be annoying.

    • Still using Classic Outlook? Microsoft highlights 15 reasons to switch to New Outlook

      By KD2004 · Posted

      For me it has everything feature wise that I want. But boy the app sucks big time. This and Teams. Ever since they made the transition to WebView it has been slow AF. I mostly use both apps in the browser now because of too much memory being used by these 2 apps. Hoping that native versions are being worked upon.
    • Nearly 70% of Steam users now run Windows 11

      Nearly 70% of Steam users now run Windows 11 by Taras Buria The May 2026 Steam Hardware & Software Survey results are now available on the official Steam website, showing Windows 11's continuous growth among the gaming audience. As of early June 2026, nearly 70% of all participants reported having a Windows 11-powered PC, while Windows 10's market share is steadily declining. According to Valve, in May 2026, Windows 11 increased its market share to 69.76% (+2.02 points), while Windows 10 dropped to 23.99% (-1.64 points). 64-bit Windows 7 is still showing up in Valve's reports, and apparently, about 0.07% of all survey participants still use the 17-year-old operating system. Valve no longer updates its client for Windows 7, but it still can access the platform, so the Windows 7 holdouts can stay away from newer Windows versions. Overall, 93.85% of all users run Windows (+0.38 points), while Linux is second with 3.99% (-0.53 points). macOS is third with at 2.16% (+0.15 points). The most popular Linux flavor is Arch Linux (0.35%), while macOS 26.4.1 is currently the dominant macOS release. On the hardware side, the most popular picks include an Intel processor (53.94% against AMD's 46.06%) with six cores (28.02%, -0.6 points), 16 GB of memory (41.14%, -0.28 points), and an NVIDIA graphics card (72.42%, with AMD having 19.13% and Intel 8.05%). The most popular graphics card on Steam is the desktop NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 (3.85%, -0.14 points), while the laptop RTX 4060 is second with 3.77%, and the RTX 3050 is third with 3.10%. The average amount of VRAM is 8GB (25.89%), and the dominant display resolution is the classic 1920x1080 pixels (51.89%, -0.32 points). As usual, you can find more details from the latest survey on the official website. The results for April 2026 are available here.
    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      This would be the ideal scenario for the context menus
    • Amazon eero Pro 6E mesh Wi-Fi system 2-pack is 27% off

      Personally, I think these things are way over rated and way over priced, even at this price. I recently had Frontier Fiber installed with 2 of these devices and although they worked, I switched back to my own router and AP setup and get way better consistency on wireless speed than with Eeros. Wired speed seems to be more consistent also. Will be returning Eeros soon. I had told Frontier I didn't want them to begin with.

      Yes, exactly what I have been thinking. Don't make the context menu simpler, make it smarter to learn what I actually use. And then, give me the ability to pin settings that I rarely use but need forget where they are.
