I could be wrong. Since I don't mess with betas or torrents I won't be trying it, but nothing indicates what makes this version worth trying. If it had been posted by someone without PT's reputation, I wouldn't have clicked the link at all.

Yes, from Googles cashes, MS leaked all of the various torrents for whatever reason. In the Eula for the current most recent build, 7077, while MS does not go as far as to state that they released.

1) Since when do TR members support pirated software?
The beta build 7000 is no longer carried on MSDN or Technet. The DL site given is Rapidshare and Mega Downloads, both of which are strong indicators of pirated software.
2) Why bother with dated beta level software? Build 7077 is available and I am running it it a VM. The RC 1 is rumored to be released this coming Friday.
3) Why the concern with eye candy when there are many other issues that need looking at such as security, ease of use, compatibility with other programs, etc?
4) Why is MS leaking the OS builds to the torrent sites?

Download delta force game for laptop. how can it be leaked by Microsoft, and be pirated?
just because its a torrent, doesn?t mean its illegal

Yes, from Googles cashes, MS leaked all of the various torrents for whatever reason.
In the Eula for the current most recent build, 7077, while MS does not go as far as to state that they released the torrents, they do acknowledge that 'it has come to our attention through our telemetry that..'
The pirate aspect comes from the fact that there are many builds, I think seven though I lost count, beyond build 7000, which is the Official build released to the public.
The EULA for the 'Official' build prohibits modification of the OS, performance testing, altering the themes supplied, etc.
The builds released 'Unofficially' on the torrents can be considered pirated.

When it is a free download and in BETA.
You can change the software as you wish.
Enjoy.

Mine is testing the software.
Testing software (old or new) is my job as well as building computers. I like to keep busy and that is my choice.

I was more curious. I test software as well. When using beta software, I prefer to have the most current release.
I do, however, hide the software in a VM and most often use it in a virtual team that is only connected to other team members with no outside networks allowed.
Once in a while, I do allow the OS network access and track who or what it contacts via firewall logs on the Linux host.
Because I am working on a coding project in which there are ugly furrier transformations and multi-threading on an SMP base, I have not had the time to throw the kitchen sink at the Win 7 builds, though I try to test each one.

Windows 7, a major release of the Microsoft Windowsoperating system, was available in six different editions: Starter, Home Basic, Home Premium, Professional, Enterprise and Ultimate. Only Home Premium, Professional, and Ultimate were widely available at retailers.^[1] The other editions focus on other markets, such as the software development world or enterprise use. All editions support 32-bit IA-32CPUs and all editions except Starter support 64-bit x64 CPUs. 64-bit installation media are not included in Home-Basic edition packages, but can be obtained separately from Microsoft.

According to Microsoft, the features for all editions of Windows 7 are stored on the machine, regardless of which edition is in use.^[2] Users who wish to upgrade to an edition of Windows 7 with more features could use Windows Anytime Upgrade to purchase the upgrade and to unlock the features of those editions.^[1][2][3] Microsoft announced Windows 7 pricing information for some editions on June 25, 2009, and Windows Anytime Upgrade and Family Pack pricing on July 31, 2009.^[1][4][5]

• 3Upgrade editions

Main editions[edit]

New Version Of Vlc For Windows 7

https://publiomg.netlify.app/free-final-cut-pro-templates.html. Since October 31, 2013, Windows 7 is no longer available in retail (except for the Professional edition preinstalled which was discontinued on October 31, 2016):^[6]

Windows 7 Starter

Windows 7 Starter is the edition of Windows 7 that contains the fewest features. It is only available in a 32-bit version and does not include the Windows Aero theme. The desktop wallpaper and visual styles (Windows 7 Basic) are not user-changeable. In the release candidate versions of Windows 7, Microsoft intended to restrict users of this edition to running three simultaneous programs, but this limitation was dropped in the final release.^[7] Does not support more than 2GB of RAM.

This edition was available pre-installed on computers, especially netbooks or Windows Tablets, through system integrators or computer manufacturers using OEM licenses.^[1][8][9]

Windows 7 Home Basic

Windows 7 Home Basic was available in 'emerging markets', in 141 different countries.^[10] Some Windows Aero options are excluded along with several new features.^[1] This edition is available in a 64-bit version and supports up to 8GB of RAM. Home Basic, along with other editions sold in emerging markets, include geographical activation restriction, which requires users to activate Windows within a certain region or country.^[11]

Windows 7 Home Premium

This edition contains features aimed at the home market segment, such as Windows Media Center, Windows Aero and multi-touch support. It was available in both 32-bit and 64-bit versions.^[12]

Windows 7 Professional

This edition is targeted towards enthusiasts, small-business users, and schools.^[1] It includes all the features of Windows 7 Home Premium, and adds the ability to participate in a Windows Server domain.^[1] Additional features include support for up to 192 GB of random-access memory (increased from 16 GB),^[13] operating as a Remote Desktop server, location aware printing, backup to a network location, Encrypting File System, Presentation Mode, Software Restriction Policies (but not the extra management features of AppLocker) and Windows XP Mode.^[1] It, too, was available in both 32-bit and 64-bit versions.^[12]

Windows 7 Enterprise

This edition targeted the enterprise segment of the market and was sold through volume licensing to companies which have a Software Assurance contract with Microsoft.^[1] Additional features include support for Multilingual User Interface (MUI) packages, BitLocker Drive Encryption, and UNIXapplication support.^[1] Not available through retail or OEM channels, this edition is distributed through Microsoft Software Assurance (SA).^[1] As a result it includes several SA-only benefits, including a license allowing the operating of diskless nodes (diskless PCs) and activation via Volume License Key (VLK).^[14]

Windows 7 Ultimate

Windows 7 Ultimate contains the same features as Windows 7 Enterprise, but unlike the Enterprise edition, it was available to home users on an individual license basis.^[1] Windows 7 Home Premium and Windows 7 Professional users are able to upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate for a fee using Windows Anytime Upgrade if they wish to do so.^[1] Unlike Windows Vista Ultimate, the Windows 7 Ultimate edition does not include the Windows Ultimate Extras feature or any exclusive features as Microsoft had stated.^[1]

Mainstream support for all editions (new features and bug fixes) ended as of January 2015, but extended support (security updates) will continue until January 2020.^[15]

Special-purpose editions[edit]

The main editions also can take the form of one of the following special editions:

N and KN editions

The features in the N and KN Editions are the same as their equivalent full versions, but do not include Windows Media Player or other Windows Media-related technologies, such as Windows Media Center and Windows DVD Maker due to limitations set by the European Union and South Korea, respectively.^[16] The cost of the N and KN Editions are the same as the full versions, as the Media Feature Pack for Windows 7 N or Windows 7 KN can be downloaded without charge from Microsoft.^[17]

VL builds

VL builds work with VLKs (volume license keys). Volume license keys can be used to activate multiple installations of the software without any mechanism (such as a product activation mechanism) checking the total number of installations. The license for the software will place restrictions on the use of the key. Typically, the license will limit the key to a fixed number of installations which must only be within the licensee's organization and also place the licensee under an obligation to keep a record of the number of installations, keep the key confidential and possibly even require that the licensee organization makes itself available for a software licensing audit to verify that its use of the key is within the terms of the license.

Upgrade editions[edit]

In-place upgrade from Windows Vista with Service Pack 1 to Windows 7 is supported if the processor architecture and the language are the same and their editions match (see below).^[1][3][18] In-place upgrade is not supported for earlier versions of Windows; moving to Windows 7 on these machines requires a clean installation, i.e. removal of the old operating system, installing Windows 7 and reinstalling all previously installed programs. Windows Easy Transfer can assist in this process.^{[1][3][19][20]}Microsoft made upgrade SKUs of Windows 7 for selected editions of Windows XP and Windows Vista. The difference between these SKUs and full SKUs of Windows 7 is their lower price and proof of license ownership of a qualifying previous version of Windows. Same restrictions on in-place upgrading applies to these SKUs as well.^[21] In addition, Windows 7 is available as a Family Pack upgrade edition in certain markets, to upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium only. It gives licenses to upgrade three machines from Vista or Windows XP to the Windows 7 Home Premium edition. These are not full versions, so each machine to be upgraded must have one of these qualifying previous versions of Windows for them to work.^[22] In the United States, this offer expired in early December 2009.^[23] In October 2010, to commemorate the anniversary of Windows 7, Microsoft once again made Windows 7 Home Premium Family Pack available for a limited time, while supplies lasted.^[24]

Upgrade compatibility[edit]

There are two possible ways to upgrade to Windows 7 from an earlier version of Windows:

• An in-place install (labelled 'Upgrade' in the installer), where settings and programs are preserved from an older version of Windows. This option is only sometimes available, depending on the editions of Windows being used, and is not available at all unless upgrading from Windows Vista.^[25]
• A clean install (labelled 'Custom' in the installer), where all settings including but not limited to user accounts, applications, user settings, music, photos, and programs are erased entirely and the current operating system is erased and replaced with Windows 7. This option is always available and is required for all versions of Windows XP.^[26]

The table below lists which upgrade paths allow for an in-place install. Note that in-place upgrades can only be performed when the previous version of Windows is of the same architecture. If upgrading from a 32-bit installation to a 64-bit installation or downgrading from 64-bit installation to 32-bit installation, a clean install is mandatory regardless of the editions being used.

Anytime Upgrade editions[edit]

Microsoft also supported in-place upgrades from a lower edition of Windows 7 to a higher one, using the Windows Anytime Upgrade tool.^[1] There are currently three retail options available (though it is currently unclear whether they can be used with previous installations of the N versions).^[27] There are no family pack versions of the Anytime Upgrade editions. It was possible to use the Product Key from a Standard upgrade edition to accomplish an in-place upgrade (e.g. Home Premium to Ultimate).^[28][29]

Derivatives[edit]

Windows Thin PC

On February 9, 2011, Microsoft announced Windows Thin PC, a branded derivative of Windows Embedded Standard 7 with Service Pack 1, designed as a lightweight version of Windows 7 for installation on low performance PCs as an alternative to using a dedicated thin client device. It succeeded Windows Fundamentals for Legacy PCs, which was based on Windows XP Embedded. Windows Thin PC was released on June 6, 2011. Windows Thin PC is supported until October 12, 2021.^[30]

Embedded versions

Windows 7 is also currently available in two forms of Windows Embedded to developers, named as Windows Embedded Standard 7 (previously known as Windows Embedded 2011, the newest being Windows Embedded Standard 7 with Service Pack 1) and Windows Embedded POSReady 7. Windows Embedded Standard 7 is supported until October 13, 2020 and Windows Embedded POSReady 7 is supported until October 12, 2021.^[31]
