Windows development when it used to be codename systems instead of continuous updates is really fun. Also longhorn had a really interesting dev process, mainly due to the bugs that came from that development. When they did the reset they used the Server 2003 code as a base instead of XP
Hey wheres my comment bruh??? It doesn't matter, That "unreleased" Windows version you install is actually Beta release of that said Version. Betawiki is a good source if you want to know about prerelease version of OSes. (I would like to know that you have to set the VMware hardware compatibility to the older version of it to getting of these Beta OSes work.)
Windows 9 probably refined Windows 8, with the Start Menu backported from early Windows 10 Technical Preview releases. Too bad they released that update for Windows 8.1 RT, not for regular Windows 8.1.
These are prerelease versions of Windows. Just press Win R to open the run dailoge 1:59 Your copy is probably modified, becouse Windows 2000's shutdown sound is supposed to play 3:23 You need to add them first 4:40 The project got reset 4:54 The same 6:00 Blackcomb (later Vienna) was completly reset in 2007. 9:30 The leaker named it Windows 9. The name was just "Windows Technical Preview" as they did not decide the name yet
Blackcomb was actually cancelled, so saying Blackcomb is Windows 7 is a big misconception. Officially Windows 7's codename is... Windows 7 (In reference of Vista Kernel number (6) + 1).
@Computer_User_EC611 A self proclamed "Microsoft employe" on Reddit said that. Programs comunicate via the version number, not name (Windows 10 is 10.0, Windows 95 is 4.0, Windows 98 is 4.1) and not by the version name, Windows Chicago build 73g for example is 4.00.73g or Windows 10 build 9926 is 10.0.9926
9:44 Aero did not exist in Windows 8/8.1, and this taskbar is not Aero. Its just transparent. final Windows 10's taskbar transparency has a way better "blur" effect that looks similar to Aero but is called Acrylic.
If I remember right, I may have a couple of those builds if so, I will post a link so you guys can try them out please do not use this on your main system and if you’re going to use this on your main system, please use virtual PC or virtual box or VM related software
Fun fact: I had a nightmare about me using the windows longhorn in the middle of the night and installing cracked Among Us and when I tried to open it the whole system crashed and then it was on the BSOD screen and the windows longhorn sign appeared and it's horn started twisting around me. Do not share this with anyone pls
I don’t remember whether it was Neptune or Odyssey, but I remember installing the beta builds for whatever reason, I don’t know if it was Neptune or Odyssey it kept giving me the blue screen of death I don’t remember, but I’ll have to check it out
Windows longhorn is the prerelease codename of Windows Vista. It had a few differences with windows vista (like sounds, wallpapers, etc) but otherwise were the same
2:02 Ermm Ackhually... That is not the windows 3.1 startup sound, that is a different version of the tada sound used in windows 98 up until longhorn. 🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓
If you tried Longhorn Build 5219 in vmware workstation 10 by installing proper drivers and doing a registry edit you can enable aero it's not perfect but it get's the job done you shouldn't have picked build 5219 that's a very unstable build
Most of the problems with Windows releases and installation were the drivers, and Microsoft doesn't write drivers; the hardware manufacturers do. I really liked Vista when everyone finally had it together. The layout and look were easy on the eye and easy to navigate as well.
Uhm I think you got confused with Windows Blackcomb. Blackcomb was in development in 2000 and was supposed to release around mid-2002 and it was to release a few months after XP. It is technically XP’s sister and there was also a version for home,business,pro and a server version but Longhorn had messed up development causing Blackcomb to go wrong way in development and it faced so many challenges all because of Vista’s development. In 2006 it got renamed to Vienna and it was a minor update to Vista although in 2007 it was cancelled and eventually turned into Windows 7, so many people had got mixed up but Windows 7 was just Windows 7 as always. I even thought it back then when I joined the Windows community so it’s ok it’s no one’s fault😂. Also could you please try these builds for me: Neptune build 5111, Windows 11 build 26063, Windows 2000 build 2000.3, XP build 2428 or 2463 and lastly Windows Server 2008 build 5757. Sorry for long comment tho T-T
@@hrpG_1tCL-l_2010 the difference is that when another build leaked to the internet, Microsoft admitted that it was a beta build, but when 21996.1 spread to the internet, Microsoft didn't admit it, even Panos Panay said that it was a strange build and was not recognized as a beta, it was a "Cursed Build".
I really like these beta builds of Windows. Great video, I just think you could have explored the builds a little more in depth instead of just giving a brief insight
Me.and my buddies acctually installed longhorn on our own computers back in 2003. I was in grade 10 . We all got it off of kazaa lol. Pretty sure it was the black background build .
Fun Windows 8 fact: AERO was literally in Windows 8's public ''''Release Candidate'''' builds... being a fairly last-minute removal.
also, windows 9 is Windows 10 Techcinal preview build 9780
It was removed because the Surface RT couldn't handle it
@@infosponge6921AERO literally existing in Windows RT: bet.
They should've just forced AERO Lite's behaviour on RT.
aero exists in 8 but its just not transparent (expect for the taskbar) thats why its called aero lite
Aero is in Windows 8 but it is Metro Ui
Windows development when it used to be codename systems instead of continuous updates is really fun.
Also longhorn had a really interesting dev process, mainly due to the bugs that came from that development. When they did the reset they used the Server 2003 code as a base instead of XP
The last build (Windows 10) was never called Windows 9. Its just the guy that posted the iso that named it like that
True
And this ISO is based on win 7 + it was released before public win 10
wasn't windows 9 a modded version of 8.1 embedded what ever the hell
@@iSamYTBackup yes it was i tried it from internet archive
@iSamYTBackup yeah, its probably windows 8.3 or somethimg he was talking abt the the windows embedded 8 (8.2) also exists.

Longhorn was probably one of my favorite betas, despite it being buggy it is beautiful and I wish the design scheme was still around to this day.

Windows 10 does have some aspects off aero, as in the transparency, This actually can be seen the most in the settings app.
but that's fluent design. Also aero is still internal default theme name as of Windows 11
I used windows longhorn for about a month until i went back to xp

Windows Blackcomb has the same logo as Windows Vista but with the orb having the wallpaper from Windows Vista’s logon screen
