You must delete it from the startup folder. Here is a link to instructions:

Another issue I am hoping someone can fix is being able to disable taskbar thumbnails. Pre 7048 you could go into gpedit.msc and disable it within there, but since 7048 and also in this 7057 doing it from within gpedit.msc has no effect. Anyone know a workaround?

On the topic of taskbar thumbnails, if you have WMP open and you minimize it and you move your cursor over WMP selection, the taskbar preview will show the cover art upside down. Funny bug.

I did a custom (clean) install on one my computers using 7057 x86 yesterday. That went very well.

However, doing the upgrade on a different computer (laptop) using 7057 x86 boot DVD, I can't do an upgrade from 7048 x86. It tells me I need Vista with SP1 to upgrade. The same thing happens if I start setup.exe from the hard drive. Apparently they are now doing a version check during installation. Just some FYI.

Did you upgrade from Vista to Windows 7? That may be a reason that happened. Weird bug.

So i guess there is no need to actually go to my motherboard's official site and download the drivers eh?

Where did Windows 7 go and get the drivers from anyway?

From their own database or ?

As they get bug reports on various hardware and software external to Microsoft, they contact the manufacturer and provide the feedback and telemetry data for the problem. When the designated company gets the software fixed or the driver updated, they send it back to Microsoft for inclusion in the build or for Windows Update.

So i can assume that the drivers from windows update are the latest drivers available?

Not sure if this was mentioned, but one major change:

As promised, they've implemented the UAC changes in this build. The UAC level screen now spawns in a separate process "UserAccountControlSettings.exe" (probably with high integrity) and any changes will throw a prompt regardless of the currently set level. (Y)

edit: was mentioned already, oops. :happy: Here's a screenshot:

I've pulled out all the login wallpapers used here. They're compressed into max quality JPEGs to save space.

There's also an interesting bitmap, take a look:

anyone have any difficulties with their nic when they update via windows update?? mine's been problematic since 7048. connects to the network, but no internet access. have to do a restart and everything is fine, sometimes for a few minutes, sometimes for hours. don't know what to make of it. If i don't update, then it works fine.

    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      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!
