Cool, thanks. Downloaded. Any changelog?

I didn't see one, but that doesn't mean there wasn't one.

Build number is the same, but I did notice that it seems to be running a hell of a lot faster for me than it did before. Usually it would take about 6 seconds to open. Now it's only taking about 2 seconds to open. Would take about 20 seconds to get Urge going and now it takes about 5.

The same thing happened with the IE7 setup files. They were re-released again, a month after from the original date in the file's digital signature. And it was no newer build of IE7 but the same. As for WMP11 i don't know if it's the same or not.

Even if it's the same exact build it did something to make it run a little faster on my system. Or it didn't install right the first time. I don't know. I'm just happy Urge is working faster now. Bugged me how slow it was before now.

I was going to post this before, but I thought somehow there would be the usual "old news" tirade.

BTW it is extremely easy to get the very latest product and patch information from Microsoft, but I wouldn't insult your collective intelligence by explaining how to do such simple hacking.

Next time, before being soo quick to say "old news", actually check the link and read about it first. ;)

In his defence the post above at no point states that this is a new build as opposed to being a whole new release, When I read "WMP11 Released" I also thought that he meant the application as a whole.

Just decided to dload and upgrade and mine says 3rd Nov. Weird.

OPaul, the build number is 11.0.5721.5145

Here's the link that I get http://download.microsoft.com/download/0/9...sxp-x86-enu.exe

5145 is the same build that was released when 11 went final. Is this definitely a new version? The only difference appears to be the digital signanture on the download. Are there any hashes to compare?

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable by Taras Buria Five years ago, Windows 11 introduced redesigned context menus, offering users a simpler, more modern design. However, customers quickly discovered that the new menus leave a lot to be desired. Many are unhappy with performance (they are really slow), while others dislike the double-layed design, where many options are hidden behind the "Show more options" button. In addition, over the years, menus became cluttered and overloaded. While Microsoft has already fixed plenty of pain points across Windows 11, context menus remain mostly unchanged. Fortunately, Microsoft is finally listening. Marcus Ash, Design and Research Lead for Windows at Microsoft, responded to a tweet on X, confirming that the company is working on fixing Windows 11's context menus. Reworked context menus are supposed to be faster, simpler by default, and "configurable to what you use most." What the latter means is unknown, just like whether Microsoft plans to keep the classic menu alongside the modern one, but according to Marcus, the wait should finally be over soon, as he promised to "share our approach soon." Improved context menus will most likely appear first in Windows 11 preview builds in the Experimental Channel. While we wait for Microsoft to release them, you can try fixing context menus on your PC with a simple tool called Windows 11 Context Menu Manager. It lets you disable entries you do not need, not only cleaning up context menus, but also making them significantly faster. Microsoft has already improved Windows 11's Start menu and taskbar, so hopefully it will address user criticism of the context menu as well. Stay tuned for new Windows 11 preview builds, which usually arrive every Friday.

    • "No. The "New Outlook for Windows" does not support non-cloud mailboxes (such as on-premises Exchange servers). Furthermore, because the New Outlook effectively functions as a web-based client, it requires all connected accounts—even standard IMAP or POP accounts—to route and cache data through Microsoft's cloud servers. You can verify the accepted account setups using the Microsoft Supported Account Types Guide." Built to fail "New" Outlook is basically just webmail in a window wrapper and it's usefulness reflects that.
