New Start menu leaks in Windows build 9788

4.4

Well, it looks like the leaks are starting to flow - or else someone has decided to spend an unhealthy amount of time building an elaborate Start menu replica. As you can see in the image above, the Start menu is there but it's not all that exciting as we have seen most of this before.

We do know that this is still an early build of next generation of Windows and we will have more to report on that tomorrow. So, don't get too caught up in the minor details as there will be other enhancements to the desktop before Threshold is released.

One item about the image that was throwing off users previously is that is says Win 8.1 Pro in the bottom corner. We have spoken to a source close to Microsoft who says that this image appears to be legitimate, and that these builds inside of Microsoft still use this branding, so this is not a big deal.

This build 9788 is said to be floating around the web but has not been properly leaked for all of us to enjoy. Considering that the images are starting to surface at various points across the web, the build will likely leak in the near future.

Actually No, Windows 8 is loosing support, If you have their "private" support it will continue to 2020. Look it up, they discussed it last week.

OklahomaCityThunder Great I just bought one windows 8.1 for my new PC that is arriving tomorrow... Does anyone think they will let me upgrade for free?

No, they are no longer supporting windows 8 because they finally realized that it was a waste of time and money, as them there selves even said.

Windows 7 Is loosing support, 8 dosent loose support until 2017

You're all idiots, Windows XP JUST lost support, Windows 7 will be supported until at least 2020 and Windows 8, 2025 at the least.

Moistfull I don't even mind Windows 8 everyone just cries when stuff is changed because they can't be bothered to learn new things which makes them not want to accept the new things.

i agree with you, its just because its different people aren't familiar with it and find lots of thing to moan about with it

I don't mind windows 8 but its the RT version of it that i don't like it has to be the worst thing they could have possibly made

you cant even download anything that isn't in the windows store and there isn't very much in the store

Windows 7 mainstream support ends in 2015. Windows 7 extended support ends 2020.

I hate Windows 8, especially when trying to play games. I'll be exploring a world in Minecraft, and all of a sudden, the Windows 8 dashboard just pops up out of no where.
