If you can request more keys I can't see the problem.

got my invite. Not been on any of the previous private beta's, however did get into WLM9 early.

Do they still give away copies of the final version to those who submit bugs?

I was part of Office 2007 beta and lol in end all they sent was a Printed Page congratulating and thanking for participation in the Beta. I don't know what others got depending on their participation level.

you may be able to still apply for the technical preview here: https://connect.microsoft.com/office/Survey...;ProgramID=3304

Thax a lot ..... just applied .... But from where i can see or check that these thing will be coming in next few days or month, like many says they had already registered there few weeks ago....

Programs

while my others say Participating.

Oh man, so I decided to go to my Spam folder and start clearing it out. I do this once or twice a month. I had 1200 emails in my spam folder and was a little out of it and clicked for it to delete all. While the browser was reloading I saw the invite email :laugh: Thankfully the email wasn't required really, all I had to do was go to Connect and accept it there, but my heart skipped a few beats until I woke up enough to realize what the hell was going on :p

So now I'm downloading the 64-bit version... WOOT!

i tried it in IE and it worked fine. ( how strange that they would require you to use their product lol) any rate its downloading now thank you for the assistance.

    • 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.
