Do you believe Microsoft is going to rebrand Windows 10 to something else?

Poll closed May 30, 2021.
  1. Yes, "Windows 10" is already dated and getting long in the tooth.

    34.5%
  2. No chance, they are going to cling to the "Windows 10" brand for as long as they can.

    39.1%
  3. Meh... Don't care.

    Does that work for Microsoft account or is that for corporate networks/ Active directory crap?

    Yes. You would not be able to log into your work laptop to connect to the work VPN if it did not.

    Edit: The problems arise if you manage to lock your account from failed logins. Then you will need Internet or physical Corporate Network access.

    We don't allow custom work on MDL. If it isn't an official MS source or leak, we don't post it here.

    Been playing with this and I can say for sure that the leak doesn't seem to have any restriction for activation based on TPM or Secure Boot. In fact I've installed it with non-uefi with mbr partitioning and activated with the digital entitlement method just fine on a vm. Bear in mind that it still uses Win10 keys and I haven't tested this on bare metal install. I used my diskpart/setup script and @Enthousiast 's script installer on the leak. I added my own winrecfg.exe and winrecfg.exe.mui files, but enth has updated those files here: https://forums.mydigitallife.net/th...el-co_release-leak.83658/page-25#post-1668980

    I am sure the block is only in the installer and when the user tries to update to a newer build.

    But the OS itself doesn't have any restrictions to run or be activated once it's already installed.

    Yep, I installed on a very old machine, legacy boot, no TPM, Installed, runs, and activated fine. ---- BUT------ if they issue new keys for later builds, then the fun begins.

    Through Windows Update via the Windows Insider Program on monday, and through an ISO file if MS releases those.
    Also if it ends up being leaked.

    @abbodi1406 Is it possible to be reviewed? If your script bypass Microsoft's block then all PCs might be able to keep testing Windows 11 Insider Previews!

    Thanks

    I understand that the current leaked builds do not have support to download and run android apk's yet, does anyone have an ETA on which build will have it and when? Or do we just not know?

    You don't need to. Look at the registry entries that the tool changes. There are 2x ones for the current channel, just change these to Dev. Done
