Vista RTM on Connect


Recommended Posts

No invitation yet...does it literally pop up..

what do i have to do to get it...ive submitted bug reports and glitch papers and everything....

since its an RTM does that mean that its the final version?

medking

it is the final version. When you click downloads on connect you'll be redirected to a survey you must accept before you're allowed to download.

ok sorry to bother you guys again but my heart is literally beating out of control right now...

i submitted bug reports using the microsoft program....

im not active in anything on connect though...ive just been submitting bugs through the program they advise on the scenario voting site which comes with file transfer manager...is that the right thing??

(hope i get it!!!)

Quick question...

If a program crashed and you told it to auto report to Microsoft, does that count as a bug report? I used Beta 1 - RC2 as a main OS, but didn't go under any major bugs other than stuff crashing.

Nothing in my mailbox. I really hope that the autosend in thing worked :(

Those bugs get sent to your connect account (you have put in your email on one of the last steps)

If I were you, I would sign in on connect with that email address ;)

Nope, those are not linked back to you in any way. If you didn't file bug reports using Connect or the bug reporting program, then you will not be receiving a copy of Vista.

Got an email, accepted and stuff.

Went to downloads and its got

15/11/2006 Windows Vista Final English DVD Images (x86 and x64) 6.0 Build Final media images for Windows Vista English DVD's

vista_6000.16386.061101-2205_x86fre_client-LRMCFRE_EN_DVD.iso

vista_6000.16386.061101-2205_x64fre_client-LRMCxFRE_EN_DVD.iso

Downloading those, are they the RTM? The words media images threw me off.

Only currently active, invited members of the Windows Vista technical beta program who filed at least one bug are receiving this offer.

This means ONLY if MS invited you to test Vista.

INVITED

please don't get people's hope's up.

Wait, so if you joined as a CPP, you don't get it?

This is correct. If you merely downloaded a copy (outside of the official tech beta) of a beta/RC and submitted a bug, you won't get this offer. You have to have been an invited, active member of the Windows Vista technical beta program.

Here is a direct quote from the e-mail:

"Only currently active, invited members of the Windows Vista technical beta program who filed at least one bug are receiving this offer."

    • FotoSketcher Studio 4.30 by Razvan Serea FotoSketcher Studio is a free creative tool that instantly turns your photos into artwork. With just a few clicks, you can apply styles like pencil sketches, watercolor, oil painting, ink drawings, cartoons, and abstract effects. Powerful yet simple sliders let you adjust every detail to match your vision, from subtle enhancements to bold artistic transformations. You can also improve your images with tools for contrast, sharpness, color, and brightness, plus add frames and text. It supports JPEG, PNG (including transparency), BMP, and WebP formats for both opening and exporting. Available for Windows (64-bit) and macOS (Apple Silicon and Intel), FotoSketcher also offers batch processing, manual retouching, and custom effects for advanced users. Completely free, including commercial use, with no ads or spyware. FotoSketcher Studio 4.30 changelog: New LUTs effect In the Photo Lab category you will find a new LUTs (Lookup Tables) effect for custom colour grading. It comes with 18 presets built right into the application (Cinematic, Kodachrome, Golden hour, Portrait and more), each with a live preview so you can see the look before applying it. Right-click the preview to compare with your original image. And if you have your own .cube files, you can load those from disk too. New "Stylize" category Added a brand-new Stylize category with four new effects. Three of them (Mosaic, Circles and Triangles) are built on the same space-filling idea, turning your photo into tiled mosaics, clusters of circles, or a low-poly triangle look. The fourth, Cartoon, is a bit different: it gives a clean graphic style with defined lines and solid colours. A little tip - set the colour intensity to 0 and Cartoon draws a pure outline drawing with no fill. Combined with the "Do not erase background" option, you can run it on top of any other effect to add crisp contours in two quick steps. Auto-Enhance and Full Reset Two small but handy additions. Auto-Enhance (just press E) tries to optimise your source photo - exposure, white balance, local contrast - for a 'dehazed', natural-looking starting point. And Full Reset clears everything back to a clean slate in one step (working image, history, LUT, script, brushes and sliders) without having to close and reopen the program. Press Ctrl+Shift+N, or right-click the exit button. Scripts The script engine has been updated to support all the new effects, with a few new commands and improved help. If you would like some inspiration, the recent scripting tutorial on this blog walks through several ready-made example scripts. The usual improvements The interface now uses new colour accents for better readability, the history gallery has had a few tweaks, and you can now open .webp images directly. On top of that, this release includes some performance improvements and a good number of bug fixes.
