Windows XP build 2211 is an early build of Windows XP, which was shared online on 20 March 2000.[1] Like build 2210, this build refers to itself as "Whistler Windows 2001", which is possibly a name combination of "Whistler" and "Windows 2001", though it may be a formatting error when compiling the build string.

New features and changes[edit | edit source]

Setup[edit | edit source]

As Setup now allows the user to recover a Windows 2000 installation by using the Automated System Recovery (ASR) feature, the text mentioning the ability to repair an existing installation of Windows 2000 at the start of Setup has been modified to include the word recover alongside repair. The font used for the titlebars and the "Welcome to Setup!" text in the GUI portion of Setup was also changed from Tahoma to Arial.

Control Panel[edit | edit source]

The Control Panel has received updates, making it resemble that of Windows Me. This includes displaying the most commonly-used applets by default with the option to switch back to the Classic view, the "Windows 2000 Support" option being renamed to "Technical Support", the Windows Me logo being displayed in the bottom right corner, as well as the squares next to the Control Panel icon being modified to resemble ME's squares.

Some new Folder Options were added. These include the option to Automatically search for network folders and printers, as well as the option to Display all the Control Panel options and folder contents by default. The option to use Passive FTP was also added to the Internet Options.

Login screen[edit | edit source]

This build contains the login screen used in Neptune build 5111. To enable it, the value of the LogonType DWORD located in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon must be changed to 1. While functional, clicking the shut down option by default relaunches the login screen. Holding the Shift key enables the option to Restart the computer, while holding the Ctrl key enables the option to completely shut down. The option to log in using a dial-up connection has been removed from the classic login prompt as well.

User interface[edit | edit source]

The "Windows 2000" wallpaper has been replaced with the Windows Me version of said wallpaper, however with the 2000 name still present.

Help Center[edit | edit source]

The Help Center from pre-release builds of Windows Me has been ported to this build. It contains several references to Neptune, like in the "Report a bug to the Windows Neptune Beta team" page.

Explorer[edit | edit source]

Like the Control Panel, the squares next to the Explorer icon were modified to resemble Me's squares, as well as the Windows Me logo being displayed in the bottom right corner or the hidden files dialog. The hidden files dialog itself has also received some updates. The "There is no need to modify its contents" warning was changed to "Please be careful if you modify the contents of this folder.", as well as the option to view all the files, with the whole "View the entire contents of this folder" text now being clickable. "Network and Dial-up connections" was also renamed to just "Dial-Up Networking".

Internet Explorer[edit | edit source]

Internet Explorer has been updated to version 5.5. This build includes minor security updates, alongside updating the copyright date from 1995-1999 to 1995-2000.

Outlook Express[edit | edit source]

In the splash screen of Outlook Express 5, the copyright date has been changed from 1995–99 to 1995–2000, however, the About box still reports 1995–1999.

ClickLock[edit | edit source]

This is the first build to introduce ClickLock. It can be enabled by changing the UserPreferenceMask key located in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop from 3E to BE and then logging off and back on again.[2]

ClickLock enables a user to lock down the primary mouse button after a single click. This allows to highlight or drag without holding down the primary mouse button.

Bugs and quirks[edit | edit source]

Installation[edit | edit source]

During the hardware detection phase of setup, Setup may stop detecting devices (shown if the progress bar is frozen for a long time). If this occurs, the installation must be restarted.

Drivers[edit | edit source]

  • Some audio drivers may cause audio to be severely distorted.
  • Some network drivers may cause the system to hang when connected to the internet.

Power[edit | edit source]

Sometimes, when powering the machine off, the system will either:

  • Bugcheck with the error code REGISTRY_ERROR and will restart the machine instead of powering it off; or
  • Hang on Windows is shutting down.
