That does not mean free upgrade. It just means you can use windows 8 key. I used a windows 8 WMC. Key to get WMC
just upgraded over win7 on my testing comp... works well with games, war thunder, MW2 etc. some apps /seemed/ a tiny bit slower but most everything works flawlessly.. first glitch I got after the install was the start menu wouldn't close until I restarted lol.
Yesterday I was asking here about the new snap feature, because I wasn't able to snap more than two apps. After some research I can confirm, it is possible to snap more than two apps at once, but there are some limitations. Reality is, you can snap more than two apps if those apps aren't Modern Apps. It is possible to snap, lets say, Word, PowerPoint, Windows Explorer and IE at once, or two casual apps and one Modern App, but it's not possible to snap more than two Modern Apps at once.
It looks like modern apps have some sort of minimum height set, I can resize some apps smaller than other apps Edit: no, you're right, from the docs:
seems like it really dont likes to hibernate... The start menu/explorer was really screwed after reboot...
any difference between enterprise version and normal version of windows technical preview? which one did you'll install ? help please?
I don't think Cortana is in any way going to function in this present Technical Preview despite there are three folders with files pointing to it for it in the WindowsApp directory.
Bugs: 1-Start Button so buggy, fix the color issue, forced flag color, black reticle needs to go away ! 2-Ugly shadows under windows, windows look very wrong, borders, lol ? drunk design? Just add Aero back. (and no it doesn't eat away power if they do it properly, and they gotta fix this default UI. 3-Allow us to change start flag color and modern UI selection color ? or just make it follow the theme color, cause its not following it. 4-Right clicking on start menu user icon or clicking power button and hovering mouse across selections will not make them "Select" shaded, only works via keyboard, what happened ? that was fine back in 8/8.1 5-Pressing the start button makes it bugger up, Lol funny. 6-If A modern app is maximized, minimized and then brought up it will be restored down, bug ? otherwise, this is a tech preview and hopefully all bugs will be smashed in the future and I cant wait for the new features like Cortana / Notification Center, someone enable Cortana Already !
