Windows 8 build 7893 is an internal build of Windows 8. This build, along with builds 7867 and 7900, was shown running on an Intel Atom SoC at CES 2011 in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA to demonstrate increased support for low-power system-on-a-chip devices.[1][2]

As this build's lab isn't working on new features, but on SoC compatibility, there are only minor changes observed within the operating system.

CES 2011 demo differences[edit | edit source]

Various aspects of this build were either changed or disabled during the CES 2011 demonstration, two of which are likely a result of file replacement originating from newer builds:

  • The characteristic User Tile seen in builds 7788 through 7850 is not present or was disabled.
  • The desktop background was changed to the one seen in the RTM build of Windows 7, in place of the blue-green gradient Milestone 1 wallpaper that was used since build 7777.
