Bugs and quirks[edit | edit source]
Windows Explorer[edit | edit source]
The details pane in Windows Explorer does not function correctly, while panes and tasks that work cannot be opened or closed. In the Control Panel, they also quickly dissapear after loading, making it almost impossible to switch to Classic View. This issue can be resolved by disabling the "Fade or slide menus into view" option in the Performance Options.
Out-of-box experience[edit | edit source]
The animated "Question Mark" assistant in the Out-of-box experience does not appear until the second page of OOBE is reached, which may be due to bugs in the Microsoft Agent technology itself.
Windows Media Player[edit | edit source]
The visualizations in Windows Media Player do not function correctly.
Gallery[edit | edit source]
Boot screen
OOBE missing the Question Mark assistant on the first page
Safe to shutdown screen
