Windows Longhorn build 4085 (Lab07 N)

Windows Longhorn build 4085 (Lab07_N) is a Milestone 7 build of Windows Longhorn. On 23 January 2020, this build was listed on a thread by UX.Unleaked blog founder Grabberslasher to be released to the BetaArchive FTP, and was later released in the fifth set of their 33 Longhorn/Vista builds on 28 January 2020, alongside build 4050 (idx02).

Fixes

 * Scheduled Tasks folder is named again in the Control Panel, however it is not functional until build 4086.

Installation

 * As typical of builds in this build range, it tends to take a long time to install and can be unstable.
 * Various commands in WinPE's command prompt such as formatting a drive will not work due to  being missing.

Upgrade
Attempting to upgrade from other builds is not possible as one of two outcomes may occur:
 * 1) A bugcheck with error code  after the second reboot. This is commonly observed when trying to upgrade from non-componentized builds, such as 4074 (via a registry tweak that reports it as a componentized build).
 * 2) An error during the file copy phase.

WinPE

 * The mouse driver in this build's WinPE does not function on specific hardware configurations or hypervisors, and may require a keyboard to navigate through the installation procedure. This issue appears to be largely related to using a PS/2 mouse, as most ordinary USB mice appear to function properly in setup.

Timebomb
Unlike other Longhorn builds, it contains a broken timebomb and can be installed on the current date.

WordPad
WordPad does not start, as it will display  instead.

Outlook Express
Outlook Express does not start due to registry errors and certain dependencies on WinFS.

Themes

 * The Windows Classic theme does not function due to a broken  file.

Explorer

 * CD, DVD and floppy drives appear and behave like local disks.
 * As a result of this, the system continously throws out notifications about low disk space.
 * Help and Support crashes Explorer.
 * Explorer will crash after adding the display tile in sidebar and won't launch again. A workaround is to create a new account via Command Prompt.
 * When the Aero taskbar and sidebar are enabled, the Taskbar erroneously uses the Sidebar background.

Control Panel

 * Hardware and Devices folder does not open.
 * By default, the Phone and Modem Options Control Panel applet name is empty.
 * Computer Management displays script errors due to missing registry entries.

Graphics
Enable VGA Mode after installing video drivers or the system will bugcheck with error code.

Windows Product Activation
Windows Product Activation is missing.

Safe mode
The Safe mode is completely broken and results in a bugcheck with code. This is because the  key, located in    is largely incomplete and missing a lot of entries. Restoring the key from an earlier build with working safe mode allows this build to boot properly, but the video driver will not initialize properly. As a result, the operating system will freeze as it transitions into graphical mode, so Safe Mode is currently not known to work on these pre-reset Longhorn componentized builds.
