    • In 7899, LAV Audio Decoder doesn't work for MPEG-TS videos. In other words, I can't watch my movies in .ts extensions properly because there is no sound. MP4 videos play audio properly. (Checked with WMP downgraded to WMP10 build 3409, which is techincally almost same as WMP9 just with different UI) But I found the solution [here] - open Codec Tweak Tool, go to MS Codec tweaks, check [disable MS DTV-DVD Audio decoder] and [disable MS DTV-DVD Audio decoder (64-bit)] and apply.

Unconfirmed bugs on Windows 7 and 8 Betas[edit | edit source]

Bugs that I personally experienced on my hardware installation but didn't check for other users.

6730, 6758[edit | edit source]

  • It might be unbootable on some hardware with 0x00000024 bugcheck on x64 builds.

6801[edit | edit source]

  • On some hardware, after second boot and restart, the partition table of the disk gets deleted and the user is forced to use a recovery software to recover them. (I tested 6801 on like three PCs and this bug happened on only one machine)

7899[edit | edit source]

  • BELL character (Ctrl+G) will play critical stop error sound instead of ding.
  • I can't include any other folders in built-in libraries. When using custom libraries, Only one folder can be included and trying to include two or more won't include any.
    • To include another folder in your library: Ctrl+C the library and paste shortcut in some other folder, drag it to Notepad, and add a new searchConnectorDescription element.
    • This seems to be fixed in build 7905. This is one of the few differences from 7899 I found.
  • Disabling Windows Error Reporting and closing some built in applications will crash and pop up that the appp has stopped working. (Happening applications: Registry Editor, Modern Task Manager, some more but I cannot remember)
  • When enabling the new copy dialog as the same way in build 7801, if you show more details and copy another file, the details aren't shown properly and requires to click fewer details and more details again.

7905[edit | edit source]

These are bugs present in 7899. Since I did an upgrade from 7899 to 7905 (in real hardware) I don't know if it's a bug of 7905 itself or is inherited from 7899:

  • CD-ROM drive opens when restarting.
  • Logon sound plays 3 times (when redpilled).

Office 2010 build 4302[edit | edit source]

Happens when running on both Windows 8 build 7899 and build 8056[edit | edit source]

  • You can't move SmartArt or charts in PowerPoint by dragging.
  • PowerPoint has a chance of crashing when moving SmartArt or charts using keyboard's arrow keys.

Happens when running on build 8056[edit | edit source]

  • PowerPoint crashes when trying to add a digital signature to the presentation file.
