    But the Release Preview has also more changes and features than Consumer or Developer Preview. ;)

    No, it doesn't. Release Preview has almost the same features with Consumer Preview.

    I think the problem with the apps being stopped to work is with the MY WCP WATERMARK EDITOR. Will appreciate someone telling me how to remove the watermark.

    Many thanks all

    I generally only use around 10 apps & programs & those I will have on the metro desktop. If I need others I will get them using the app/search path.
    Its time to move-on w/ the MS new Windows 8 setup, I will be happy w/ this new look when it RTMs.

    i got a bug where there's over 115gb of movies in a folder (mkv+avi+vob) and i sorted it by group by date, it simply frozee when i opened that folder and memory starts leaking over windows explorer or simply folder would stop responding so, i downloaded a reg file to set default folder views back to normal, very annoying. for a release preview, feels more like a beta or alpha. :(

    Question: Does anyone also have issues on Metro IE regarding flash content? Desktop IE is fine. On Metro IE some would play, some not. Anyone? Tyvm.

    As anyone encountered this bug while browsing folders in explorer. when you open any folder, it first shows "The folder is empty." and then it shows the contents of the folder. This bug continues to be exist from the developer version to the present release preview too..

    Just my two remarks:

    1. Windows apps like Maps stop after a while. Also, some texts in the Store are in German, while I am in the Netherlands.
    2. I have a Logitech Mediaboard Pro for PS3 (a Bluetooth keyboard with mousepad). After starting up, it is very sluggish (mouse) and key input is repeated often. It takes about 5-10 minutes before my keyboard works flawlessly again. This is awkward, it was working perfectly under Win 7. I'll try to reinstall it again (I did an upgrade).

    Hmm weird, I mostly see English or Chinese apps.
    Do you got the English language installed and your location set to Netherland or United States?
