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.

    • That's not clickbait. Clickbait is headlines like, "You'll never guess what this person looks like now" for example. For goodness sake, take a look around the internet if you think this is clickbait. How do sites survive if people don't click through to articles? How many people in all honesty would have clicked this if it had your suggested headline? You and those upvoting your post won't be happy until the web is a couple of hundred websites all behind a paywall.

    • Or use Epic games and get full games for free. lol Steam and their demos. Thankfully there’s competition
    • Maybe I missed it, but does this say anywhere that the game save bug has been squashed? I haven't encountered it myself, but it would be nice to know I'm good to go. Anyway, amazingly well done game. Mostly more of the same. ...but when the same is best in class with improved graphics and features, then a win.
    • Well when your game flops, you should expect this. If I do bad at work, I would expect a layoff. Less than 1600 people played it on steam. https://steamdb.info/app/1934570/charts/
