Ah, looks like MS is trying to keep better track of who is leaking the builds now.

I bet they just love those leaked builds. It helps them to decrease the load on their servers and if they are really up to testing it, then it`s great.

Plus RU is for the keyboard, not for keeping track of nothing.

Are Private folders new?

The lock is, yes

The button to launch Task Manager was renamed and this IS rc1.

Updated usericon:

The user icon was new in 7000. So its been around a while. Also, the button to start task mananger has been like that since 7000, may be even 6956, so its new to you, but old to us who have been testing it for a while.

Nice, hopefully a x64 pops up soon. Id like to test her on my laptop.

Also, that EULA doesn't mean its RC1, some of us have been beta testers for a long time and time has proven that the EULA is never a final indication of anything.

Many times they will have 2 or 3 builds just prior to a real RC1 release, they do this because they are not 100% sure its ready for rc1, they make it so that it is rc1 but then find some bugs or something they missed, they fix and compile again and when they see no major bugs they say, ok this is good, send her out.

They don't just go "OK THIS NEXT BUILD WILL BE RC1, LETS CHANGE EVERYTHING OVER AT 1 TIME AND RELEASE IT" that would be impractical.

No it wouldn't have.. Those are internal builds, they dont have to say anything, they are not for PUBLIC.

I think its funny when people show up and talk about beta builds like they have been around for ever and know what is going on.

I've watched the internet change from only a select few getting the beta copys and having at most 20 post threads about it to now everyone gaining access because of bittorent, now all of a sudden you guys are experts?

I don't claim to be an expert but when you go around shouting "ITS RC1 BECAUSE THE EULA SAYS SO!" you are being ignorant.

It's like you guys are clueless, "Then it would have said 'Pre release' . " For all we know this build is 8 compiles old and was only relevant to test for 2 specific bugs towards rc1 and then they moved on.. The point is, you dont know.

I remember people shouting RC for this build too, but that wasn't the case.

5536 version of : 6.0.5536.16385 (vista_rc1.060821-1900)

Then it would have said "Pre release" .

Why would they care about making the EULA match a "pre release"? They are more concerned in preparing it for RC, so they update it for RC even before it is signed off. They don't compile these builds for the intention of the public getting their hands on it. I still think this build is at least few builds behind what we will see in a couple weeks.

This is version 10 of my post. I don't care if I haven't edited it all, its version 10. Why you ask? Who cares. But if Microsoft apparently does it I mine as well too!

There is no point in not putting the correct version. Internal build or not, it wouldn't help anything to pre-empitize the version.

    • Sound Booster 1.13 Build 575 by Razvan Serea Increase volume on your laptop. Boost the volume of even very quiet speakers. Raise volume above maximum. Letasoft Sound Booster can be used as an extra amplifier when the volume of the program you are listening to is too low for comfortable listening and you feel that your PC’s speakers can produce a louder sound. This can be the case when the audio or video has been recorded at the level below normal. Or, for example, when the other person’s microphone you are talking to on Skype, is not working properly. There can be a plenty of other reasons why the sound is being too quiet and there is not much you can do about it except buy external speakers. Sound of any application that is being played in the system can be amplified up to 500%. Letasoft Sound Booster can raise volume of programs like web browsers, on-line communication software (Teams, Discord, Zoom), any kind of media player or games. Simply put, volume of virtually any program that can play any sound in PC, can be boosted to a comfortable level with Letasoft Sound Booster. You can control current volume with the pop-up slider from the system tray. Alternatively, you can assign system-wide hot keys for increasing and decreasing, and use them when you need to adjust volume Letasoft Sound Booster constantly monitors current gain level and prevents samples from clipping, thus reducing all major sound distortions.

    • I own these and the normal QuietComfort ones from Bose. The QC are amazing and I want to love these, but for the life of me, I have a terrible time getting them attached to my ears.
    • Thanks for the tip. I am giving it a try. Initial quick impression: I like it.
    • Welcome to Neowin. Enjoy your time here!
