Windows Longhorn build 3713 is a Milestone 3 build of Windows Longhorn, which was uploaded to BetaArchive on 26 April 2011.[1]

New features and changes[edit | edit source]

Windows Setup[edit | edit source]

Out-of-box-experience[edit | edit source]

The translucent glass border used in the Start Page has been replaced with a Plex-themed opaque border. The currently logged on user's profile picture is now also displayed next to their name.

WinFS[edit | edit source]

Continuing on with the evolution of WinFS, more folders now utilize the service, such as My Documents, My Pictures and My Music.

The "My Pictures" and "My Music" start menu options were replaced with WinFS counterparts, promptly named "Picture & Video Library" and "Music Library".

A "Filter by" left pane was also introduced in Windows Explorer, allowing the user to filter files, pictures and music.

User interface[edit | edit source]

Taskbar[edit | edit source]

This is the earliest available build to include the new taskbar, which would later become the default in build 4015. It can be enabled by right clicking on the sidebar and enabling the "New Taskbar" option.

The taskbar is 5 pixels shorter than the old one and now integrates with the sidebar. However, the taskbar does not display the user's notifications or the current time.

An arrow button was added to the taskbar, which allows the user to open or close the sidebar.

Sidebar[edit | edit source]

The Sidebar is now enabled and no longer transparent by default.

Two new sidebar gadgets were introduced, Tray Icons and Windows Media Player. The Tray Icons gadget displays the user's notifications, while the Windows Media Player gadget allows the user to play and control music from the sidebar.

The Installer icon seen in the background of the Programs List gadget was also removed.

Desktop Manager[edit | edit source]

The default wallpaper of the first virtual desktop is now the currently logged on user's wallpaper instead of a blank wallpaper.

Desktop Compositing Engine[edit | edit source]

While the Desktop Compositing Engine remains visually unchanged from build 3706, its graphics card support was improved. NVIDIA GPUs no longer cause a bugcheck, while ATI and Intel GPUs no longer cause an immediate DCE crash.

Windows Trust Manager[edit | edit source]

The Windows Trust Manager now opens in a larger size by default and refers to itself as a "Windows Application".

Media Center[edit | edit source]

The Windows Media Center application can now be opened, however, it is not possible to get past the Getting Started step, due to a crash occuring after pressing Next.

Tablet PC[edit | edit source]

This build is currently the only available pre-reset build to contain both the Media Center and Tablet PC components, which would later be included in the final release of Windows Vista. These components can be installed via the Add or Remove Programs applet located in the Control Panel. The Tablet PC component includes the On-Screen Keyboard, Sticky Notes, InkBall, Tablet PC Tutorials, and Windows Journal.

When prompted for the second disc, it should be pointed to the I386 directory of the installation media.

Miscellaneous[edit | edit source]

  • ClearType is now enabled by default.
  • The Windows Media Player application has been updated to version 9.

Bugs and quirks[edit | edit source]

General[edit | edit source]

  • The "Low Risk" and "High Risk" text overlaps in the Windows Trust Manager.
  • The new taskbar cannot be right clicked.
  • DiskPart does not function and will tell the user that This version of diskpart is not supported on this platform.
  • Display Properties mentions the Luna theme as the Plex theme.

Sidebar[edit | edit source]

  • The sidebar will fail to render properly when adjusting the resolution.
  • On some graphics drivers, balloon notifications flicker when over the sidebar.
  • The Sidebar context menu uses the white color instead of the blue color.

Windows Explorer[edit | edit source]

  • Due to the newly added WinFS task pane, the user cannot view system drives or folders like System32. Alongside this, the option to switch the Control Panel to Classic View is no longer accessible, making most Control Panel applets completely unaccessible.
    • Deleting the WebView key in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer will revert the task pane to its Windows XP counterpart, allowing the user to switch the Control Panel to Classic View.
  • This build's Windows Explorer is quite unstable, and can crash randomly at certain times.

Desktop Compositing Engine[edit | edit source]

The Desktop Composition Engine only renders the user interface on the hardware layer, while the software layer is rendered as a black screen or leftover data. As a result, attempting to use software capturing methods (such as Print Screen) will not result in a proper capture of the screen. Most hypervisors only render the software layer, usually resulting in a black screen upon starting DCE.

Miscellaneous[edit | edit source]

Windows Journal does not open due to missing inking components.
