Just picked this up from another forum;

"The woman who leaked the 7068 build now has her hands on 7077 in both flavors, and is planning on leaking them tonight. Apparently right now she is just deciding on which version to release first."

Looks like it might be time for an upgrade from 7068.. :D

Please remember no warez talk is allowed in this thread. All members who discuses warez will get a warning.

In the case of windows 7 you can talk about your experience with it, just not the methods of obtaining it.

It would be a wise to take the words Seeds and torrents out of your vocabulary.

Crap, I missed the initial leak by several seconds. The plan (as stated on the russian site) is the following: First, this gal leaks the thingy to those who managed to grab the torrent while it was still there, because she has a really slow connection, then when the selected community is able to provide enough speed, the torrent file will reappear again

Okay you lost me there. I must have not read about that. So why do the 2 different build numbers mean the same build? And is there somewhere I can read about this more?

7077 and 7105 are build on the same day.

7077 = from the RC (escrow) branch (escrow is only to see if there are bugs in the build, and the final RC will be renamed to 7100)

7105 = the first build from the RTM branch.

so if there are no bugs found in 7077, it will be the final RC (release in may, 7077 will be then renamed to 7100)

How so?

Anyway ill try to explain what wzor was saying (so people dont need to decode that weird google translation). Build 7073 was first build branched twice, once as 7073.winmain and once as 7073.win7rc. Build 7077 was also branched twice, once as 7077.win7rc and once as 7105.winmain. And its expected that sometimes in next 2 days, MS will decide what build will become RC-escrow build.

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By duhk · Posted

      I like the show more options. The only problem with it is that it's not always in a consistent spot in the menu. If the copy/paste/cut, happens to show on top, then more option is the last in the menu. But if copy/paste/cut happens to show on the bottom, then more options is before the copy/paste/cut. But I do like the more options because it hides the stuff that I rarely use. But I would like to choose what it is or isn't hiding. That would make it better.

      I wonder if "put it back the way it was for decades" ever crossed their minds? 🤣

      Rescind the stupid "Show more options" in context menus and just give us the full menu instead of adding more steps to get to what we want. The "simpler by default" makes me think they'll go in the opposite direction. Every context menu should have a configure button so you can pick and choose what options should be shown, I know you can do that with some registry fu but that shouldn't be required.

      This is why competition must exist. Finally, pressure is mounting on Microsoft to move in the right direction.

      Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable by Taras Buria Five years ago, Windows 11 introduced redesigned context menus, offering users a simpler, more modern design. However, customers quickly discovered that the new menus leave a lot to be desired. Many are unhappy with performance (they are really slow), while others dislike the double-layed design, where many options are hidden behind the "Show more options" button. In addition, over the years, menus became cluttered and overloaded. While Microsoft has already fixed plenty of pain points across Windows 11, context menus remain mostly unchanged. Fortunately, Microsoft is finally listening. Marcus Ash, Design and Research Lead for Windows at Microsoft, responded to a tweet on X, confirming that the company is working on fixing Windows 11's context menus. Reworked context menus are supposed to be faster, simpler by default, and "configurable to what you use most." What the latter means is unknown, just like whether Microsoft plans to keep the classic menu alongside the modern one, but according to Marcus, the wait should finally be over soon, as he promised to "share our approach soon." Improved context menus will most likely appear first in Windows 11 preview builds in the Experimental Channel. While we wait for Microsoft to release them, you can try fixing context menus on your PC with a simple tool called Windows 11 Context Menu Manager. It lets you disable entries you do not need, not only cleaning up context menus, but also making them significantly faster. Microsoft has already improved Windows 11's Start menu and taskbar, so hopefully it will address user criticism of the context menu as well. Stay tuned for new Windows 11 preview builds, which usually arrive every Friday.
