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.

Here's a tip .. put up a second clock in your taskbar .. set it to Moscow time!

haha i have done exactly this when it was announced that it suppose to get up today at 6 or 7pm moscow time :)

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

    • Does anyone here know if these updates are integrated into the UUP dump isos?
    • Motrix Next 3.9.4 by Razvan Serea Motrix Next is a modern, open-source cross-platform download manager built as the official next-generation successor to the original Motrix project. It has been completely rewritten using Tauri 2, Vue 3, TypeScript, and Rust, while still relying on the powerful Aria2 download engine for high-speed multi-protocol transfers. The app supports HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, BitTorrent, ED2K and magnet links, offering advanced features like multi-connection acceleration, task scheduling, bandwidth control, and batch download management. With a significantly reduced install size (around 20MB), it focuses on being lightweight, fast, and resource-efficient compared to traditional Electron-based download tools. Designed for Windows, macOS, and Linux, Motrix Next delivers a clean, modern UI inspired by Material Design 3 principles, with smooth animations and a minimal workflow. It improves usability through better download organization, system tray integration, and enhanced torrent handling including selective file downloads and tracker management. Motrix Next features: Multi-protocol downloads — HTTP, FTP, BitTorrent, Magnet, .torrent, ED2K, and Metalink tasks BitTorrent — Selective file download, DHT, peer exchange, encryption controls, metadata caching, GeoIP peer flags, and tracker probing Browser extension integration — Embedded Extension API with independent authentication, download confirmation, smart auto-submit, filename hints, referer/cookie forwarding, and real-time controls (Chrome Web Store · Edge Add-ons) Safe filename handling — Content-Disposition, RFC 2047, non-UTF-8, percent-encoded, and extensionless URL resolution with path traversal sanitization Download organization — Favorite and recent folders, optional file-type categorization, stale-record cleanup, and completed history backed by SQLite Concurrent downloads — Independent controls for active tasks, HTTP connections per server, segments per file, and BT peer limits Speed control — Global and per-task upload/download limits with day-of-week and time-of-day scheduling System integration — Tray operation, optional tray speed display, macOS Dock badge/progress, protocol handlers for magnet://, thunder://, and motrixnext:// Lightweight mode — Destroys the WebView on minimize-to-tray while Rust keeps the engine, task monitor, notifications, history, and extension routing alive Notifications and power options — Native task start/complete/failure notifications, keep-awake during downloads, and optional shutdown after completion Network controls — Scoped proxy support for downloads, app updates, and tracker updates, plus system proxy detection Auto-update channels — Stable, Beta, and Latest Across Channels policies with separate download and install phases Diagnostics — Structured logs, exportable diagnostic ZIPs, database integrity checks, automatic DB rebuild, and Linux GPU rendering fallback Personalization — Light/dark/system theme, 10 color schemes, 26 languages, and first-launch system language detection Motrix Next 3.9.4 changelog: Motrix Next 3.9.4 promotes the 3.9.4 beta cycle to stable. This release refreshes bundled engine binaries, improves task detail readability and copy actions, expands link handling for magnet and ED2K workflows, polishes responsive navigation and text wrapping, updates browser extension documentation, and refines network preference controls. New Features Task Detail copy actions — Added copyable values for task metadata and reusable render functions for long text fields. Magnet and ED2K lifecycle support — Added task lifecycle handling for magnet and ED2K links. History cleanup for deleted tasks — Deleted tasks can now remove matching history records. User-Agent management — Added user-agent management and improved related network preference controls. Browser extension documentation — Added the Firefox Add-ons link for the Motrix Next extension. Improvements Engine binaries — Updated bundled binaries for supported architectures. Task Detail readability — Long task names, URLs, tracker values, and copyable metadata now render more clearly.

    • NVIDIA officially supports Ubuntu, as linked above with the GeForce NOW Hands on I did in collaboration with Paul Hill.
    • TO be clear I am not running linux today, however I keep thinking about it. And I want to make sure there are minimal obstacles if I decide to make that switch in the coming months.
    • Yes, I actually glossed over the Linux part from the OP. You could always go for a 9070 XT and if you really want to play Ray Traced games in the future, GeForce Now is pretty damn good on Linux https://www.neowin.net/news/nvidias-native-geforce-now-app-for-linux-bridges-the-gaming-gap-hands-on/
