    Ok found the toggle I have been trying to explain in the Foobar advances settings

    Capture.PNG

    This would be a WELCOME addition to windows in the future. Open 3 chrome and one internet explorer click on any chrome and then use your wheel mouse on any other chrome. Now click on the explorer and see what happens. I know we speak to ourselves since M$ does not know about this site.

    Regards

    There would possibly be a leak after September ending. Just be patient with Microsoft.

    I think there will be no ISO would leak because this isn't 'Age' of Ballmer :D

    That appears to be "C" build from the factory. "C" has nothing to do with Charlie either. The wallpaper is hideous though, so it very well could be from MS :suicide:

    I agree with you. It seems to look like 'Ballmer's era' of getting leaks is over. That really hurts though. :biggrin:

    I don't know if I can agree misalignment in the the desktop can be explained by camera angle. But I do agree about the new icons and general flatterness (no taskbar line, lines separating categories in start menu are not complete across). It looks like the next UI step in my opinion.

    Does make you wonder if Ballmer actually allowed those leaks to drum up hype doesn't it :p

    That I cannot personally say. Supporting the leaks which end up in giving people the right to mod them is beyond me if we are to say he's intentionally allowed the leaks in the past.

    If microsoft was proud of it they already had 'accidentially' leaked it or so,
    but as some others stated here it appears it's still an unfinished OS and not worth a leak.
    Releasing it early means getting feedback earlier, that's not the new microsoft way.

    If it is possible to prevent leaks now, it was possible to prevent leaks before. Why they didn't? Well, because leaks help to build up interest in products. Also, everybody knows Microsoft is monitoring these forums and here they get best feedback, because lots of members are tech enthusiast who understands how OS works, what works wrong and how to fix it. Remember black screen issue on boot after installing leaked Win 8.1 Update 1? This bug was reported here first and days after we've got patch. Because we're the best test team in the world. :biggrin: Why were is no leak now? Probably OS is unfinished yet. When it will be good enough for testing, WZor, guys from China or Poland will get a permission to leak it. I guarantee it.

    Should we subscribe to that statement? Perhaps! But, I think WZor and the other people you are referring to are too afraid of giving out leaks for security reasons not because the Windows 9 is still in a developing stage.

    Wow! It is like those are meant for ultra-high resolution screens. I read in your link that they would be scalable in a 8k screen. That is unbelieve! We aren't going to see any personal computer coming with that yet. At least, that is over 100% higher than what we already have in the market.
