Windows 8 build 8176

Windows 8 build 8176 is a build of Windows 8. This build was leaked on 4 January 2019.

Features

 * The setup background color has been changed from grayish blue to dark teal.
 * This build contains all of the wallpapers used in the official Consumer Preview (except for the default and Theme2 wallpapers).
 * As of 2021, it's the last leaked build of Windows 8 to include a Start button on the taskbar.
 * The Settings app has been redesigned into the RTM iteration.

USB 3.0
This build appears to have a broken XHCI driver, and therefore will BSOD during setup if USB 3.0 is enabled. Disabling USB 3.0 for the VM (or from BIOS/UEFI, on real hardware) should fix this problem.

BSOD on adjusting the DPI settings
Adjusting the DPI settings will make it freeze and then crash the system instead of the prompt "You must log off your computer to apply these changes". However, after restarting, the adjusted DPI settings will be applied.

Intel Graphics driver blackout
It is recommended to not install the Intel Graphics driver, as it will cause a blackout on the computer, effectively rendering the display useless.
