    Sorry, if I misunderstood your post. What do you really want to know about without it been leaked before the release date? I am just curious to know how that is possible though. I care though because I am a Windows user. If the site intended (you are referring to) divulge the information about the build 9861 it means it has hold of the leak. Is that correct? But, my disagreement with Microsoft is that there are too many builds out there at the moment which are not so much different in any way beside the build versions yet the same kernel.

    Just HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Accent\StartColorMenu :) The value set there changes when you select a new colour and the start menu will take its colour from that value. I converted the sample code given here (h*tp://msdn.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/windows/desktop/ms724892(v=vs.85).aspx). When WaitForSingleObject returns, a value under the Accent key has been set (so it gets triggered a few times for every colour change :\), so the script sets StartColorMenu to the desired value (in this case, the blue from my Windows 8.1 install), sends a WM_THEMECHANGED message to all windows to get Explorer to re-read the key and set the Start Menu colour and goes back to waiting for the next time the value changes. Granted, I don't really like sending WM_THEMECHANGED but the only other way I was effecting a change was by restarting explorer.exe...

    Could be a million things. Kernel update, UI change, feature add/subtract. Who knows what changes from build to build (except those using it lol).

    I've just installed the WTP for Enterprise over an Activated Windows 8.1 Enterprise..........I was hoping it would stay activated but it hasn't.

    Is there anyway that I can activate WTP for Enterprise?

    Thanks in advance
