New features and changes[edit | edit source]

The User Account Control dialog box has been updated to be reminiscent of that to the RTM.

Bugs and quirks[edit | edit source]

On some GPUs, when Desktop Window Manager is enabled, the graphics are only rendered properly on the hardware layer, while the software layer is distorted, which means that attempting to use software capturing methods (such as Print Screen or Snipping Tool) will not produce the screen correctly.

Installation[edit | edit source]

The WinPE background is missing during setup.
The OOBE might hang, so press ⇧ Shift+F10 to open Command Prompt, run taskmgr, and then kill the msoobe.exe process.
