    This enables admin tools in the Metro UI
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]
    "StartMenuAdminTools"=dword:00000001

    Hey all,
    Help me. I just can not manage to install updates for DirectX9 on WDP. Some errors related to a cabinet file and cryptographic services occur.
    I just downloaded the Dolphin Emulator and get the error that XINPUT1_3.dll is missing which is a part of DirectX. What to do?

    OK.. So I ran AIDA32 on WDP x86 and this is what I get

    Operating System - Windows Developer Preview 'Professional'
    Does it mean that the SKU of WDP is Professional?

    Internet Explorer - 9.10.8102.0 while the desktop IE reports it to be 10.0.8102.0

    Now that's insane!

    Tami Reller said at CES that she couldn't wait for all of us to download it and check it out, so I think they will

    Try using aida64 instead of aida32. aida32 is very very old software that has not been updated in ages.

    Youtube videos seem to cause the Nvidia WHQL driver from WU to crash on my WDP.
