First Windows 7 build 7032 screenshot leaks

First Windows 7 build 7032 screenshots leak

Days after the leak of build 7022 (32-bit) to public torrent sites, WinFuture.de has posted a screenshot clearly showing a 64-bit Enterprise edition of build 7032. We already know of a build 7034, but this is significant because there have been no screenshots or any other tangible proof of any of the 703x builds. The screenshot shows the following build string: "'6.1.7032.0.winmain.090129-1812," meaning that the build was compiled on January 29, 2009 at 6:12PM. Since it is an interim build, it's not surprising that the screenshot shows the build expiring on July 2, 2009.

Other than the new build number, the screenshot (full-size image) does not show too much. A date is shown in the bottom left in a European format, but all this shows is that the screenshot was taken today. There appears to be a new icon in the taskbar, but it's not clear what it's for. IE8 is still at RC1, which is not surprising. The user has Hibernate set as the default for the power button in the start menu, but this doesn't necessarily mean Microsoft has changed it from Shut Down.

i dont mean to rain on anyones parade but it MAY!!! not be true... but at the same time it may.... screen shots can always be altered. and a little program called resource hacker can change what some winows will read. like that posted one... right now i can be running 500gb of memory... or at least that whats it will tell me...

For the billionth time, it's not fake. Just like the screenshots of 7025 were not fake, this one isn't either. Ars verifies their sources.

I'm with you on this one Slimy, I have also heard from a good friend that this is a real build and he also may have access to it soon, you probably noticed his post on the 7022 thread from DiamondNRG, hopefully it will be leaked soon

 

[Slimy]

Actually I saw it elsewhere, but it's good to see you that believe me this time

 

[JerzeyLegend]

Jeez, relax. We believe you, we believe you!

Jeasas Ch....t you'd think Bob the builder was gone mad ,there are so many new BUILDS about.

 

[MrBachelor]

LOL @ "Bob the Builder"

Is it just me, or do the windows look like they have more rounded corners? It may just be the low res and clarity of the image though.

i tried capitalizing MAY so people would notice that i meant it "MAY not be" but i guess that didnt work..... oh well...
Anyway. i think that if 7022 is out im sure their working on the next. i didnt necessarily doubt it, i was just playing devils advocate

It went right OVER their head. But it's OK. I know what you meant. Real or not real, this isn't the first, and it won't be the last (at least until RTM).

For a moment there I thought I was reading a post under "Chillout Room" LOL!

I sure hope another higher build comes out in x64. I need an excuse to do a clean install of Windows 7 as recreating problems and finding solutions to posts leaves some residue in your system

Anyways, great info and looking forward to get a copy of these leaked builds.

I remember the first screens of 7022 and one of the members here insisted that it was fake and did not exist..Well how bout now? :sarc:

And I can tell you for sure that the 7032 is also just as real and I want it now!

I wouldn't care about upgrading other than the fact that the Explorer version that came with build 7000 is so horribly messed up it's not even funny.

And it's been confirmed that the 7032 is the x64 version and yes also there has been some major improvments to Explorer in this version. Too bad the only place I can find it is on one of the "pay" torrent sites. And I refuse to pay! I expect to be at one of the other Torrent sites in the near future.

Problems with the build 7000 Explorer are as follows: Loses favicons for no reason at all. Loses sign in cookies and second party viewers also for no reason at all. It also locks up very easily and is just a general PITA to use. It is in fact the absolute worst Explorer version of all time! I had zero problems using Explorer on my Vista partition.

theres 32bit 7032 also it isnt just 64bit and the 64 bit 7022 download is up now

 

[b1llabong]

this is cool man..gotta try this one..

 

[limneos]

There's already a torrent up for 7032.... I'm currently downloading to see what it is about...probably fake...

 

[damoh]

the ones i have seen on torrents so far are fakes, checksums are the same as 7022 and the timestamp is wrong

 

[Brink]

Hi Limneos,

I have seen those, but they do not look like they can be real copies with them only 650-700 MB in size though. I would be cautious about those.

 

[NosferatuX]

I've been hitting torrent sites as well and have yet to see a real build 7032 download

 

[limneos]

well, there's one that I'm currently downloading which has 2.36GB size...

Its build thought is really funny: 7032-0-09185-1970

I guess it will only appear to be a 7000 build....but the 2.36 Gigs seems strange...
