New features and changes[edit | edit source]
Windows Setup[edit | edit source]
Localization strings in the modernized Windows Setup user interface have been adjusted to remove most of the informality introduced within build 8040.
User interface[edit | edit source]
Background image set[edit | edit source]
A new set of desktop and lock screen wallpapers intended for the upcoming Milestone 3 release have been added.
User accounts[edit | edit source]
The background color of the default account image has been changed to a light green.
User Account Control[edit | edit source]
Invoking an application that requires User Account Control elevation will now hide the entire user interface as a privacy measure. The user's set wallpaper is instead displayed as the cloaked background.
Task Manager[edit | edit source]
Minor localization changes have been implemented. The Applications tab has been renamed to Processes, whereas the Processes tab has been renamed to Details.
Miscellaneous[edit | edit source]
The startup sound is now disabled if build is redpilled.
Bugs and quirks[edit | edit source]
Windows OS Loader[edit | edit source]
The boot loader may crash on itself before it jumps to the OS kernel entry point in rare occasions.
Windows Search Indexer[edit | edit source]
Attempting to change what file types the Search Indexer should parse will cause the Search Control Panel applet to crash.
