Windows 7 B1SP1 leaked
« on: April 11, 2010, 08:58:55 PM »
Windows_7_SP1_(7601.16537.100327-0053)_Bits_UG_DVD_Beta_Interim has been leaked via several Forums (W7V first) then others, and now all over via TORRENTS.

I see very little improvements to RTM - & official updates.... infact i see a couple of very ANNOYING things.
1.  Left click to open folders is missing and changed to Explore.
2.  Right click has two new ( strange options)  opennewprocess & opennewwindow.  
3.  Most annoying is now that I lost the ability to "open Folder" when I have downloaded a new program...
#1 above can be fixed ease enough.  open regedit ->   move to "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell"
   Delete the key name "explore"  then
   Double-click on the default value and set it to “none” without the quotes.

The only STUPID Question is the one you never asked.

"Open in New Process" is available in W7SP0 if you hold Shift when you right-click. It opens a new explorer process, which is helpful as it means one malfunctioning explorer window can't take down all explorer windows, and as the Desktop and Taskbar are part of the explorer process.
"Open New Window" opens a new window, but in the same process, unless "Launch folder windows in a separate process" is checked.
