Could someone with the new build also tell me if when you change themes if it still messes up the font highlighting under desktop icons?

Also is the Wallpaper changer fixed in the new build?

Both looks ok to me. Not sure about the problem with the font highlightning, but everything looks fine.

If you could change the theme to the Untied States theme then right click and select rename on a deskto icon. Can you see the font? The highlight color should be dark blue.

Thanks

The transition\fade effect when you change wallpaper is new and pretty cool!

Yea, just noticed myself. Nice addon

Looks to be some issues still. Not on all themes though.

Thanks X-bite

Also if you could check open a window like say IE Maximized then open WMP 12 and from the task bar see if it open on top of the IE window?

There is a bug in build 7000 where WMP 12 seem to almost always open behind other windpws.

It was available in build 7000. Anything new or added to transition effects ?? :)

Only when using the wallpaper shuffler in build 7000 if I remember correctly. Now it does that when you select a wallpapper manually also.

Opens in front now. Tried it several times with different windows maximized.

Can someone check if in build 7022 there is still error with permissions... For example in Beta sometimes i get error when saving files from any program:

"F:\Users\Username\Desktop\Filename.psd

You don't have permission to modify files in this network location

Contact the administrator per permission to make these changes"

After this error file is created but with 0 Bytes.

I have instaled win xp and win 7.

Hehe, sorry was playing around with the new build :)

Seems WMP was updated in this build:

The album art is bigger and the "Library" button moved to the top right of the now playing window. To get "Show List" you have to right click also. The song title/artists info now cycles which is nice but i rather it the way it was before where the name of the song is always avaialable in bigger bold fonts. Not sure if i like those but i guess.

You can remove more Windows Features:

There you can remove Windows Media Center and DVD Maker and even WMP 12!

Looks like the Now Playing fonts aren't incredibly blurry anymore. Larger album art, now that's a plus. (Y)

Someone at the mainpage comments mentioned that there is a new animation when "moving things around explorer"... Can someone look into it?

Yes it's true. If you have like for example: mutiple IE tabs open, the animation looks more smoother. I can't really explain it anymore than that. To add to the WMP, of course the icon & the buttons are different now.

I'm not sure if it's new or not, but if you hover over "All Programs" for about 3 seconds, it will automatically send you there, same thing works when you want to go "Back".

Paint also looks different

Setup was much faster using an ISO mounting program, in this case, i used PowerISO.

Overall performance is better :)

That's all i've noticed so far, i will let you guys know if i find more out!

I don't think that's what he was asking, correct me if I'm wrong backdrifter, but I'm assuming it has something to do with Windows Explorer... not Internet Explorer?

Looks like the Now Playing fonts aren't incredibly blurry anymore. Larger album art, now that's a plus. (Y)

Might just be a result of my JPG compression :) But yeah larger album art, i submit feedback about that already. AMG (All Music Guide) needs to start releasing at least 300 x 300 now instead of the 200 x 200 they currently do/did. That's why that one up there looks kinda fuzzy too.

Oh and Gaius - leave my music alone. LOL I was downloading some old music that i remembered (Dru Hill - Beauty) and found some new ones at the sametime. I was sampling that's why that's a weird playlist. I barely listen to the radio so i don't even know what's hot these days.

    • Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, Flip 8, Z Fold Wide: Everything you need to know The ONLY thing I need to know is the price, which I know will be way higher than I (and most people) are willing to pay for a phone... so basically nothing here I need to know. PS: Nice job getting that Apple reference to a non-existent and unrevealed product as "competition" in there. Cheque is in the mail.
    • Well I really think the repasting helped if your higher clocks have returned, maybe the next thing to look at is if there is a problem with your case airflow? I guess this because your 3080 has returned to optimal state, but is still staying too warm, which might suggest it was thermal throttling before you repasted, of which the only logical conclusion could be outside factors.
    • Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, Flip 8, Z Fold Wide: Everything you need to know by Hamid Ganji Galaxy Z Fold 7 - Image via Samsung The next generation of Samsung foldables is set to be unveiled next month at the second Unpacked event of the year. Samsung’s 2026 foldables are not expected to offer significant upgrades over their predecessors, with the Korean firm instead focusing on design refinements and conventional upgrades such as faster processors and better cameras. However, Samsung is reportedly planning to unveil an all-new passport-style foldable this year to rival Apple’s first foldable iPhone, which is expected to debut this September. Here’s a roundup of everything we know about Samsung’s upcoming foldable devices ahead of their official debut. When can we expect Samsung’s new foldables? The Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 series were unveiled in July, and Samsung is expected to maintain this timeframe in 2026. Based on previous reports from Korean sources, Samsung will hold its Unpacked event on July 22 in London, UK, to pull back the curtain on the Galaxy Z Fold 8 series. The devices are also expected to hit the shelves a few weeks after launch. However, Samsung has yet to announce an official date. A new naming scheme? One of the most interesting changes we might see this year is a new naming scheme for Samsung’s latest foldables. SamMobile reported that since Samsung is expected to unveil three foldables this year, it has adopted a new naming strategy to simplify product identification for customers. Accordingly, the standard Galaxy Z Fold 8 will reportedly be called the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and will serve as the direct successor to last year’s Galaxy Z Fold 7. The “Ultra” suffix suggests the phone could feature higher-end specifications, such as additional rear camera modules. Samsung’s new passport-style foldable is expected to carry the Galaxy Z Fold 8 name without any suffix. This model is reportedly equipped with two rear cameras. No major changes are expected for the Flip model. Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and Z Flip 8 anticipated specs Rumors over the past few months suggest Samsung is preparing several upgrades for its upcoming foldables, although the devices may continue to rely on larger batteries and faster charging speeds rather than dramatic design changes. The primary focus this year is expected to be the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and its wide-screen design. Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra official CAD renders - Image via AndroidHeadlines Here are the anticipated specifications for the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra based on previous leaks: 6.5-inch outer display and 8-inch inner display, 120Hz refresh rate, and 2,600 nits peak brightness Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, paired with 12GB or 16GB of RAM and 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB of storage 4.1mm thickness when unfolded and a weight of 210g 200MP main camera, 50MP ultrawide camera, 10MP or 12MP telephoto camera, 10MP cover camera, and 10MP selfie camera 5,000mAh battery with 45W wired charging Android 17 and One UI 9 As for the Galaxy Z Flip 8, the device is not expected to be a major departure from its predecessor, although it could become slightly slimmer. Expected specifications include: Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 or Exynos 2600 processor 12GB of RAM with 256GB and 512GB storage options 6.9-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X inner dispaly and 4.1-inch Super AMOLED outer dispaly 50MP main camera, 12MP ultrawide camera, and 10MP selfie camera 4,300mAh battery with 25W wired charging Android 17 and One UI 9 Samsung’s foldables are also expected to launch with Gemini Intelligence, Google’s AI suite for automating tasks in Android ecosystem. Moreover, given current memory and component costs, some Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and Z Flip 8 variants could see a price hike. Galaxy Z Fold 8 adopts a wide-screen design The centerpiece of the upcoming Unpacked event could be the Galaxy Z Fold 8, previously rumored as the Galaxy Z Fold Wide. This model adopts a passport-style form factor and is expected to compete directly with Apple’s iPhone Fold. Galaxy Z Fold 8 official CAD renders - Image via AndroidHeadlines Here’s what to expect: 7.6-inch primary OLED display and 5.4-inch cover display, 120Hz refresh rate, 2,600 nits peak brightness, and 4:3 aspect ratio Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, 12GB or 16GB of RAM, and 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB storage options 4,800mAh battery with 45W wired charging 50MP main camera, 50MP ultrawide camera, and 10MP selfie camera Android 17 and One UI 9 The three new foldable phones are unlikely to be the only devices unveiled at Samsung’s Unpacked event. The company is also expected to introduce the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 and the Galaxy Watch 9 series.
