Sull Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 I am really excited to see the final release of Windows 7. Just installed the latest beta I could find, previously had build 7000 and now onto 7022, all is hunky dory right now and I will be testing it more tonight.Who else is running 7022 and what are your thoughts. PS. Currently installed my my week netbook with atom and the performance is quite good. I will be curious to see how it performs once I get some more programs installed. As of now I have just basic stuff, utilities, FF, the works... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricktendo Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 I had problems with 7000 and uTorrent, I dont have those with 7022. Actually I had problems with all versions of Windows 7 prior to 7022, it did not last more than two hours on my PC before I went back to Vista or XPSome bugs like not being unable to delete certain folders until you restart and adding stuff to the registry (especially shell extension stuff) is hard if not impossible...but the bugs are barerableOH! I forgot, everybody on the network can read my %UserProfile% files like Documents, Downloads, AppData, EVERYTHING! so if you are on a network watch out...they will be able to see EVERYTHING!

Sull Posted March 1, 2009 Author Share Posted March 1, 2009 Yeah I had some weird bugs in 7 which were quite annoying!OH! I forgot, everybody on the network can read my %UserProfile% files like Documents, Downloads, AppData, EVERYTHING! so if you are on a network watch out...they will be able to see EVERYTHING!Waaaa are you serious, how does that even happen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest snakecracker Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 i would run build 7022 but its only in x86 i need x64... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricktendo Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 I forgot to mention the new partition creator during install sucks, it wants to create a 200 MB partition for system files or something...the workaround is to boot from a Vista DVD create your new partition/s then reboot again from your Windows 7 DVD and install Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sull Posted March 1, 2009 Author Share Posted March 1, 2009 Yeah I worked around that 200mb partition, I have enough dam partition lolI think I found what may be a bug or one I created by doing some tweaks. A cool new feature if you drag a window off the screen is will maximize or if you drag the taskbar in it will then minimize. This feature was working, but now when I do it Windows Explorer quits working and has to restart.Other than that all is good. I sent the one report to Microsoft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sull Posted March 1, 2009 Author Share Posted March 1, 2009 oh 7 won't save my credentials for my SERVER after logoff or reboot :sad01_anim:I am testing 7 image backup to my SERVER atm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMHolt57 Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 No kidding...part of the Aero features that you are speaking of is the ability to grab a titlebar and toss to one side or the other and it changes to fit the height of the screen, grab and toss to the top and it will maximize. If you have multiple windows open on the desktop and grab one and shake it, all others will minimize. This is part of the Aero peek and there is a setting to enable it on the taskbar props, with show desktop using the small button on right end of the taskbar....
