Windows 7 SP1 Beta Up to Build 6.1.7601.16559

Microsoft continues to keep mum on the development process of Windows 7 Service Pack 1, but the silence from Redmond should not be taken for inactivity. Work on the first service pack for Windows Vista’s successor is moving along fine, at least according to third-party sources, as the software giant is keeping all but a few details under a tight lid. Russian website Wzor claims that Windows 7 SP1 is up to Build 6.1.7601.16559, but it too did not offer any additional details, or the leaked bits for that matter.

It appears that 6.1.7601.16559.win7sp1_beta.100506-1349 is the interim build which belongs to the win7sp1_beta branch. Microsoft works on at least two branches of Windows simultaneously, Beta being one of them. Per the information in the build string, Windows 7 SP1 6.1.7601.16559.win7sp1_beta.100506-1349 was compiled on May 6th, 2010. This is a more recent release compared to the last leaked build, 7601.16556 (7601.16556.100421-1510).
