Some security updates were released for this build between October 2008 and February 2009, for x86 and AMD64 architectures (descriptions for which referred to as Windows 7 Pre-Beta), with file versions ranging up to 6801.4xxx.[2][3]
Windows Recovery Environment[edit | edit source]
When booting from the onboard Windows RE partition, Startup Repair now launches instead of the System Recovery Options. Startup Repair needs to be canceled to access the Recovery Options.
Multiple wallpapers can now be selected as default wallpaper, where they will rotate after a specific interval set by the user.
The Personalization Control Panel applet in its whole has been removed from the Starter SKU.
The Windows Mail and Windows Calendar applications turned into non-functional stubs, thus are no longer able to be opened. The other files for them are still present though.
While the version number has been set down from 8.1 to 8.0, a "Suggested Sites" drop-down has been added to the favorites bar.
The ability to change the background graphics in the Windows Media Player library has been removed.
- Stability issues can be encountered while moving desktop gadgets.
- Much like in build 6780 and build 6776, it is not possible to upgrade to this build due to an issue in the way how Windows Setup handles disk volumes.
- Upgrading from build 6776 will not encounter the bug.
- In Getting Started, the text below "Find out what's new in Windows" is missing, which results in displaying placeholder text.
Setup will continue after restarting your computer
