Windows Vista build 5744

Windows Vista build 5744 is the official Release Candidate 2 build of Windows Vista, which was officially released to the public on 6 October 2006. The name "Release Candidate 2" is actually a misnomer; during the final stages of Vista's development, Microsoft encountered several hiccups that resulted in delays to the build 6000. RC2 was released in order to in still confidence in reviewers and manufacturers; in other words, it was released to show Microsoft's progress. It was not intended to be leaked or released. Windows SideShow and RSS Feed icons are changed in this build.
