9 changes from Win 7 7068 to 7077

[echrada]

So yesterday Build 7077 became available, and I installed it last night. The change between 7068 and 7077 in numbers is 9, so I tried to find 9 changes between these two releases. Not only I succeeded in finding 9 changes (the changes are below), but I also found one new bug, that wasn’t there before.

Also, one minor thing is that the stamp on desktop is much shorter. That only proves that Windows 7 is approaching Release Candidate.

I skimmed through the list and noticed that 1, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 are all wrong. I have 7068 installed so I really don't know what this guy is going on about.

That's funny...I was thinking the same thing. I don't know what he's talking about. I checked them too. There are none of those changes. The "show desktop" could have something to do with his display settings but......looks like he's wrong.

 

[echrada]

I have to agree some of his 'changes' are not quite what he says or finds.

Maybe the guy's been sleeping..take for example the sound schemes, those have been there since 7048.

I am still running 7057, lol, what are the "main" real differences would you say from 7057 to 7077 ?

Appart from a couple of cosmetic changes, there's a lot more hardware device drivers & much better stability.

It will all be mainly performance and stability related from here on in. Most of the cosmetic changes Have taken place between 6801 and 7057 because since then there have been no visual differences and better compatability/stability/performance increases. Its time for a different type of test and feedback.

Exactly right! With the RC Escrow the code is pretty much set in stone and all that happens from hereon out is fixing bugs and other minor problems.

That's the way I see it.

Not just me then. I'm looking at my version of 7068 and thinking - that looks the same to me

 

[damoh]

It must be to do with his hardware, i can change my names of my libraries just fine lol

 

[smarteyeball]

He's just not very observant......

 

[Airbot]

He's just not very observant......

that's it..maybe 7068 was the first build he installed.

 

[smarteyeball]

And he didn't pay too much attention to that either

 

[UKForce]

Great, so this is now the main bit to look at for a good OS to be honest, I am happy with its looks, and performance, so its good to see an improvement of the things that actually make a good OS ... Performance/reliability/compatibility/Usability.


Thanks, will have to take a look at 7077 I think then.

LoL the change between 7000 and 7077 is 77 so there must be 77 changes find them all!

Just finished fresh install of 7077 x64, took 17 minutes from boot up to DVD to log into my desktop. One thing I did note is that when doing a fresh install now, a 100MB partition is no longer created.


EDIT: Just noted that a drive letter was not assigned to my 2nd 500GB HDD, had to create a drive letter for it.

 

[fakeasdf]

everything about his post is dumb 9 builds don't necessarily mean 9 changes.... You can make multiple changes in each build...

One big difference I have noticed and I haven't installed build 7077 yet, is the size of the ISO, I am thinking there must have been a lot of cleaning up taking place because it has become considerably smaller, if anything I would like to know what was removed, not what was added.
