Less than two weeks after Windows 8 Milestone 1 (M1) Build 7850 made itsway into the wild, a new, more advanced Build of Windows vNext was alsoleaked. Windows 8 Milestone 2 (M2) Build 6.2.7955.0 is now availablefor download from various illegal third party sources including some ofthe worlds most popular torrent trackers.
Just as it was the case with Windows 8 M1 Build 7850, any user with aBitTorrent client that is willing to disregard the inherent risksassociated with leaked copies of the upcoming platform can grab Windows 8M2 Build 6.2.7955.0 and start testing it.
According to information from the source of the leak, BetaArchive, thefull Build string of the latest leaked Windows 8 development milestoneis 6.2.7955.0.110228 1930. The data indicates that this particular Buildof Windows 8 was compiled on February 28th, 2011, a date at whichunofficial reports revealed that Microsoft had started the coding workon the Milestone 3 release of Windows vNext.
There is some confusion about which stage of the Windows 8 developmentprocess Build 6.2.7955.0 belongs to. It appears that the release is atransition Build between the signed off M2 release and the first M3bits. But dont expect Microsoft to offer any clarification on thematter at hand. The software giant used the same strategy for M2 as itdid for M1 and hid a range of new features in Windows 8 Build 6.2.7955.
In addition to such new components as Webcam, Logon UI, TaskUI, PDFReader and the immersive IE, Windows 8 M2 Build 6.2.7955 also sports theRibbon UI, Application Folder and full DWM. There are additionalgoodies packed into this release, including touchscreen gesture effects,but make sure to keep your eyes on Softpedia and Ill provideadditional insight throughout the day. While Windows 8 M1 Build 7850 wasleaked extremely late after release, so late in fact that it hadalready expired, the same is not the case with the new Windows 8 M2Build 6.2.7955.0 leak.
Windows 8 M2 Build 6.2.7955.0, also time bombed, will only expire onJuly 1, 2011, which means that testers get to use it for quite a while.Its worth noting that the leaked Windows 8 M2 Build 6.2.7955.0 releaseis not identical to the Build that official testers get. The ISOavailable in the wild has been cooked with components from Windows 7 inorder to get it to install. As such, theres really no telling what elsemight be packed into the unofficial release, so it might be a good ideafor users to avoid leaks altogether.
