Vista Tutorial - Windows 7 build 7077 leaked

As you can see above, screenshots of Windows 7 build 7077 have started to appear around the Web. There are also reports that the 32-bit version has been leaked and is readily available on various websites. Nevertheless, a good source has told me there are no noticeable differences between build 7068 and any of the 707x builds. This is much more important than the information leak of build 7070, though it's not immediately apparently. In the "About Windows" dialog box, there isn't an actual build string as we've seen in previous interim builds. It simply says "Version 6.1 (Build 7077)." The only other build we've seen this for is in the beta build released to the public (which also was leaked before Microsoft gave the download to testers): "Version 6.1 (Build 7000)."

The build string for the latest build we know about is "7077.0.090404-1255," which indicates that it was compiled less than a week ago: April 4, 2009, at 12:55pm. Some of you will realize that this is 20 minutes after the supposed build 7105 was compiled, which is widely rumored to be a milestone build. Microsoft only increments the second digit of the build number if an important point in development has been reached. The software giant is expected to give a new build to testers this month, and a public Release Candidate build is coming in May.

Hello Slimy.


Good article, thanks.


















Later Ted

when is the last day for 7068 ?

Last day before you can't use it anymore?

ya !!!

Who leaks these secret informations?
How come companies like MS allows to leak such imp info?

I was just wondering the same thing! especially after the wolverine movie leak.

Lol.

I think it's mostly TechNet subscribers who upload it to torrent sites and such.

Think I'll just hang on until the RC is out. Becoming a pain in the rear to keep installing W7 every other week

Here's a snip of the "winver" from my 7068 install.
