Please read our community rules and then you may understand why nobody gave you a link to it :rolleyes:

I've got what I hope is not a stupid question. I've been aware of the following rule for a very long time:

No Warez (links) & Cracks.

Help, requests or posts that discuss circumvention. This includes linking to illegally obtained software, movies & music files - posting about it, and suggesting obtaining it.

How can threads discussing downloading, using and reviewing illegally obtained Windows builds be allowed? Just curious.

Yep! Thats wierd for me too. Double rules.

Can anyone here actually prove that such software is actually illegal? Has anyone been arrested, tried, and found guilty in public court anywhere on earth for downloading beta software? Or is all this based on the EULA which has been proven to not be a legal binding document in several cases, in public court, here in the US and most likely wouldn't stand up to scrutiny elsewhere too?

I know people are curious but, it's beta software... get real. I can just see it now...

Prisoner 1: "What are you in for? I axe murdered my whole family and blew the Sheriff away with a sawed off shotgun after they found out I was raping my daughter..."

Prisoner 2: "I downloaded some beta software without Microsoft's express written permission and running it and I wasn't part of the beta program."

(Prisoner 2 runs off cowering in fear, crying as he does so...)

Sorry, I just ain't buyin' it... :D

According to the discussion on a well-known Russian site, the seeding will start again at 11 am Moscow Time. Seems the seeder has some issues with the internet connection. So for now it's gonna stop at some 7% (mine did at 7.4)

so that's what, 12 hours from now??

This thread is for discussing build 7068 and I'd rather not stray off-topic by talking about the Neowin rules. There are some very justified reasons as to why we allow talk of Windows development builds and I suggest you please send a personal message to a supervisor for a better explanation :)

To clarify though, it is only the development builds and not the final builds. If somebody discussed downloading a released, final, build of Windows - that is against our rules.

Now, back on topic... :)

just a thought here, but how do we know this guy isn't just jerking our chain, the first one stops at 0.7%, then the second at 7%. says he'll start back in 12hours, but who knows right?

couldn't this just be a screwed up fake build and we're piling on top of each other to get it? there's no way of knowing, is there?

well yer he could post just the setup.exe first, that would help.

    • Apple finally brings the slider for Liquid Glass and many other changes by Aditya Tiwari Apple kicked off the official live stream of the WWDC 2026 annual developer event. The company began its latest wave of announcements with changes to the controversial Liquid Glass design language, which debuted last year across Apple's entire software ecosystem. A lot of people didn't like Liquid Glass when it first arrived on iPhone and other devices last year. The devices were plagued with transparency issues and whatnot. While Apple improved things over the year, it has now added a new Liquid Glass slider that lets you switch the transparency from clear to opaque. The sidebars now expand to the edge of the window. When you scroll the UI sideways, the refraction continues beneath the sidebar rather than being cut off at the boundary. Moreover, Apple has changed the way Liquid Glass is rendered across the system. There is a separation between different layers, which makes buttons in the toolbar stand out from the background. Apple said it "deeply appreciates" the feedback it received from users and has made adjustments to Liquid Glass.
    • FWIW, I've been using Helium on Linux and Windows since the first time it was mentioned here. Actually, maybe a day or 3 before, as I searched for it when I saw it mentioned on the MX Linux forums. Haven't had a single issue on either OS. Not bad for a beta.
    • See up until a few years ago y'all could get away with simply denying your war crimes, pretending it never happened. Unfortunately for you, it's the 2020s and Israel's genocide has been livestreamed in real time. You have to be dumber than a rock to think anyone still believes your propaganda. See the cat is already out of the bag. The world already knows who you are so do yourself a favor and just drop the facade. Bet it gets real tiring keep track of all the lies. Take some inspiration from Israeli ministers who boast on live TV they like massacring civilians. Every zionist accusation is after all a confession.
    • He's just reporting what Microsoft posted. https://msmessagecenter.com/MC1381119 It just means that Windows Defender updates will no longer be bundled into the monthly Cumulative Windows security update and will now be a separate download. They'll still be on Microsoft update of course but now they can be released faster.
    • Apple announces iOS 27 with no changes to the list of supported iPhones by Taras Buria At WWDC 2026 in Cupertino, Apple announced iOS 27, the next mobile operating system for compatible iPhones. The update focuses on tweaking and improving last year's iOS 26, particularly in areas like app launch time, Liquid Glass design, and more. Additionally, Apple has reworked Apple Maps with a significantly enhanced Flyover view for a much more realistic view. Apple also promises better performance, smarter search, new Health features, new parental controls, and more. The most important part is that iOS 27 is compatible with all iPhones that can run iOS 26. That means that even the seven-year-old iPhone 11 can run iOS 27 (supposedly better than iOS 26). iOS 27 will be available this Fall, with the first developer betas expected later today. You can follow the live stream here.
