Guys quit asking for the invite code. We can not give it to you. if you didnt get one, you didnt get one. so be it. just quit asking.

So, what's the invitation code since everbody's is the same?

not necessery. and again we can not give it to you so quit asking.

It's been said time and time again in the thread that only Microsoft can send you an invitation with a code.

Right, and its getting really annoying to hear people in every other post "can i have a code" plz send me de codes" blah blah blah. Just stop it, nothing much changed in it anyway, as said in the e-mail its an early bulid, so it may just look like an updated 8.5. we dont know.

Just like with the old 3xxx longhorn bulids. they looked just like XP, because well, it was an EARLY ALPHA!!!

Why are there even threads like this? I don't get the point, the beta hasn't even started it is 'pending'. I am so not excited that i got the invite.

Why do people post comments like this just to raise their post count. no one reads these comments anyway.

so? may be it matters to some..... I'm a huge techie and a wiz at computers and love trying out and testing new stuff...

every party has a pooper :rolleyes:

For everyone who did not receive an invitation

This beta is limited, the product team only wanted about 1000 testers, that's why so many were invited outside of the private groups this time. It's going to be a managed public beta in good time, so just sit tight for an invite! Check out my blog for information about the new beta. Screenshots will become available when we're givin the word :).

    • Anyway to download these versions without being on the Experimental builds?
    • Nothing is stopping you from continuing with your testing cadence. If updates are released every 2 weeks instead of 4, and you test once every 4 weeks, the exact same amount of patches will still be available for you in those 4 weeks. For example: Before 4th week - patch 1, 2, 3, 4 After 2nd week - patch 1 and 2 4th week - patch 3 and 4 Still the same amount after 4.
    • Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!

    • Server Summit had a heap of announcements, ADCS changes are baller.
