Meh, each build I've installed has had some annoying bug that has made me fiend for a new build like crack. :p

revreddy: don't most of the winmain builds with the full build string in the watermark say "For testing purposes only" instead of "Evaluation copy"?

I think they put "evaluation copy" since 7077 was an escrow build. But for official public builds, they always use "for testing purposes only. Build 7xxx" without using the full string. Based on that picture alone, 7106 seems to be newer than what the public may get. Someone has to download it and confirm. Until that, we are zombies as atleeit said.

I will look at setup.exe dig signature and post a screeny if i can.

OK here's a pic of the setup.exe

I still don't know if anyone can release a legit build with or without it being properly signed, If someone edits 7106 build then the signature breaks, maybe this time is what happened? I cannot say i'm right.

x86 has no trackers

x64 has one tracker

i'll post a x64 setup dig sig in a minute

Possible both Chinese x86 and x64 have been modified, but don't know. Could be fake or real, someone will verify it, But here is what x86 and x64 look like.

That doesn't look too promising. :(

Well you don't HAVE to get new builds, you choose to. I'd rather be swamped with new builds than be starved of them but that's just me

True, what I meant was that I did constantly get new builds all the time, but I finally settled with 7068, and am reading over the changelog and reviews the newest build, and I'm thinking hard before I get it this time.

I've been having some major issues with my wifi cutting out at high torrenting speeds, so I'm hoping "improved networking" fixes that.

Here is 7077 VS 7106 Pics

Possible picture is real, by the way i put this together in paint, but don't know about leaks. Still waiting till someone tests.

Why on earth someone would want to fake a Chinese build in Traditional and Simplified is beyond me when most of the population uses English builds. To me that would be wasting alot of time to create the fake, waste of Easter happiness lol.

Was every build including 7068 all digitally signatured even if the builds were modified?

The below images are my system VS supposibly 7106 version in Simplified Chinese, don't know if it's real, let's wait abit longer.

I need to apologise, for taking my stand so firmly, but i seriously belived it wasnt any chance of being real. However i opened boot.wim (cant open install.wim yet) and all dlls and files seems to be 7106 version. So its eather great job faking it or its most likely real... however chines version doesnt help a lot of people here ;(

Just because it's not on TAP doesn't mean it can't leak, it's certainly not the first time it has happened with Windows Betas.

i do understand that ofc... but odds that happens are small, thats why i tought its fake in 1st place.

stupid. Yes im going to complain. for the majority of us this does us no good. might as well have not wasted their time.
Slight sidenote: There are more Chinese speaking people on this planet than English speaking people, so it depends on your definition of 'majority' :p

(There are even more people in China with an internet connection than people living in the US, for instance)

Ah hell, ANOTHER one? Seems like I'm spending more time installing new builds and tweaking things again afterwards than actually using the damn thing!

Wait, we're supposed to be using it? :|

    • Hey Google, these are the Gemini features I want in 2026 by Aditya Tiwari Google Gemini has been around for over three years. The AI chatbot started its journey back in 2023 (as Bard) when ChatGPT was already a talk of the town. However, it quickly attracted criticism after misrepresenting facts about the James Webb Space Telescope. The search giant spent a year fine-tuning Bard before rebranding the chatbot and its underlying generative AI model to Gemini, drawing inspiration from NASA's first human spaceflight program. Note that Bard was initially powered by LaMDA and PaLM 2; Google has since added several new features and integrations to Gemini. That said, there is scope for improvement and a gap for new features. I have been using Gemini for a while now and have realized that the chatbot lacks several features, making it harder for me to research across topics. These are mostly function-over-form updates that can improve the overall experience. Delete individual messages from a conversation Image via DepositPhotos.com One good thing about Gemini is that it can maintain context throughout the conversation. But things might get chaotic when you want to ask a related question, but don't want it to be part of your conversation in the long run. You can't ask that related question in a fresh chat because Gemini will lose the active conversation context of what you're trying to research. If Google allowed you to delete individual question/answer pairs, you could simply ask about a sub-topic and remove it from the conversation to create a smooth flow of important stuff. Offline mode Image via DepositPhotos.com A big pain of using Gemini daily is that everything loads from the cloud. It takes time for your chats to appear, and you can't view your conversation history while offline. To get a better idea, you can open the Gemini app and see how it looks without an internet connection. While Gemini models run in the cloud, it wouldn't hurt if Google could store chats (at least the text part) on the device so we can refer to them when offline. Google can also offer a lightweight version of its AI model to help with basic drafting, summarization, and other tasks. It has the Gemini Nano model, which can perform on-device processing on Google Pixel, Samsung, and some other Android brands, but it's a system feature and not related to the cloud-based Gemini app. Make temporary chats permanent I can't thank Google enough for taking the time and effort to add incognito mode or temporary chat mode to the Gemini app. It lets you have conversations without worrying that the topics will end up in your chat history or used for model training (at least on paper). Google claims that it doesn't use your temporary chats to "personalize your Gemini experience or train Google’s AI models." However, the data is stored "up to 72 hours to respond to you and to process any feedback you choose to provide." That said, I often start researching something in a temporary chat, only to realize the chatbot's answer is good enough to refer to later. Sadly, Gemini doesn't have an option to make such temporary chats permanent. In other words, I won't be able to follow up on it if I close the temporary chat. I'm left with alternatives like copying the answers into notes or another app. My digital life will get a lot better if Gemini gets a button to make temporary chats permanent. Collapse answers for a cleaner view You're heavily invested in your research game and suddenly feel the need to go up in the chat to recall something. This is when the conversation thread starts to feel like an overwhelming, unending wall of questions and answers. What if Google added a way to collapse Q&A pairs in the Gemini chat thread? It would look quite clean and easy to navigate. You'll quickly get an overview of everything you have discussed with the chatbot. Add buttons to jump between messages Suggested mockup of the feature. This reminds me of a small but useful Gemini feature that Google could add to its chatbot: the ability to hop between prompts in a conversation. Just add simple up- and down-arrow buttons, similar to YouTube Shorts, so people can quickly scroll through the messages. A table of contents or Chat Overview It's hard to get a bird's-eye view of everything you have discussed with the chatbot during a lengthy conversation. This is where a table of contents, or Chat Overview, displayed at the top of the screen, possibly in a drop-down button, might come in handy. You'll be able to get an overview of the chat and jump between messages, serving as an alternative to the up/down arrow buttons. Temporary mode for Gemini Live Image: Google You can use Gemini Live to have real-time conversations with the chatbot, which feels like you're talking to someone in the same room. However, a downside is that Gemini Live doesn't work in Temporary Chat mode, so all your conversations end up in the chat history. Google should consider expanding the temporary chat mode to include Gemini Live. Default to a specific chat One thing that feels somewhat annoying to me is that Gemini always opens in a new chat, whether on web or mobile. Sometimes, you want to return to your last chat. Google can take cues from web browsers, which let you choose whether you want to go to a new tab or a specific web page(s). Gemini can also have options to default to a specific chat when reopened. That said, generative AI chatbots have endless possibilities given the vagueness of their work. You can mold them the way you want by attaching different connectors, adding custom instructions, and including source files. It remains to be seen what Google has in store for future updates and whether anything from this wishlist gets the green light. The search giant released a stream of new Gemini updates in recent months, including Gemini 3.5 Flash and Gemini Omni Spark, adding that it now has 13 products with more than a billion users each.

    • Thank you for the post. Just a FYI that links to an outside site or promoting specific software is considered spamming here. Asking general questions is fine.
    • I have been thinking about AI detector tools as a software workflow rather than a single "AI score" widget. When someone pastes text or uploads a document, the UI can return a report with a probability-style score, sentence highlights, reliability notes, and limitations. The useful part is that it can point a reviewer toward passages worth reading again. The risky part is that a polished score can look more certain than it really is. For people who build or review web apps, what should happen before the user copies or exports that kind of report? The minimum I would expect is: A clear input boundary for pasted text versus document files. Limits shown near the workflow, including minimum text length and maximum file size. A report label that says the result is a signal, not proof of who wrote the text. Sentence highlights and evidence notes alongside the global score. Reliability notes when the sample is too short or lacks enough sentence variety. False-positive and false-negative caveats that remain visible in copied/exported summaries. I am trying to avoid the pattern where a clean report card becomes the whole product story. For AI detection, "review this evidence in context" seems more honest than "trust this score." Would you keep the warning text visible on every report, or make it collapsible so the main result stays easier to scan? Disclosure: I work on a small AI detector/reporting workflow, but I am intentionally not linking it here. I am asking about software and report design, not promoting a site.
