Windows 8 build 7788


 * For the leaked build from fbl_core1_hyp_dev with the same build number, see Windows Server 2012 build 7788.

Windows 8 build 7788 is a build of Windows 8. A screenshot was posted to the BetaWiki Discord server on 5 May 2020, but the image was deleted soon afterwards. This build is from the shell development lab and is therefore more similar to 7814 than its contemporaneous fbl_core1_hyp_dev compile and build 7791.

New features and changes

 * This is possibly the earliest known build to contain most features hidden by Redpill such as the Modern Task Manager, the Modern Reader, and Ribbon tabs on Windows Explorer.
 * Introduced the Microsoft Confidential watermark on the desktop.
 * Reintroduced centered title bars, which were last used in Windows Longhorn build 4005.
 * Introduced the new (ultimately scrapped) Disk Cleanup tool.
 * Introduced the Start screen.
 * Changed the desktop wallpaper to a blue-green gradient with the phrase "shhh... let's not leak our hard work", which would be used up to Windows Server 2012 build 7904.
 * Title bar text and buttons are now larger than ones in Windows 7 and earlier builds of Windows 8.
 * Introduced the user tile on the taskbar.
