    lot of stuff considering it to be a COREconnected version. I also expected less than this

    Nope. Leaked ISO is a completely different version.

    So this is based on core since it has no advanced features like domain join etc... This is seriously pointless. I wonder if there's an anytime upgrade key to upgrade it to have pro features.

    Windows 8.1 Pro with Bing LOL :p

    I installed this in a vm just to have a quick look, there's nothing here that isn't in regular core or pro.

    Buddy wzor announces more to come like core single language with Bing. I'm quite positive that he has more to come this weekend except "useless" stuff :D

    In my opinion, it is never a good idea, to use unfinished version on your main system. If you just want to play around or if you like to test new things, install it on VM :) And yeah, it seems soon there will be new leak.

    Windows 8.1 Bing Edition, internal codename "PWNTHECUSTOMER"

    How-come some of the updated drivers & files still show version 17019 instead of 17025 and IE is still 11.0.3 and not 11.0.4? I am sure this was asked several times before, so there is no harm in answering once more :D!

    Nope, not here... I installed everything properly, update after update, and restarted between each update, but the end-version of Windows is 17019, not 17025... WTF???:mad::mad::mad:

    You sure you installed the supplemental MSU? That's what makes it go from 17019 to 17025.

    Yes. Now that I try to launch it again, it tells me that its not applicable to my PC... Could this have happened because I removed all the installation files after the original Escrow update? I always clean up after updating... Should I try to go though the update process again? Or maybe skip some files? I got it off the torrent package, which seems legit, all the file sizes seem proper...

    well things are confusing here for people, only certain files got changed, for example, under the registry, windows nt current version says 17025 but msinfo32 says 17019, so I can see the confusion

    When I use regedit to verify the version, it does show 9600.17025.amd64fre.winblue_gdr.140214-1706 - but what is that AMD64 in the name? It also does not explain why IE11 stayed the same version. Something is NOT right here...
