Additional improvements from Beta to RC

We are all waiting and hearing from notable changes from RC. Since Beta, Microsoft Windows 7 has brought so many surprises and we are busying on enjoying those. To our satisfaction, Windows 7 changes all the way to RC. Let's see this time how different and advanced features RC take for us.

Basically, Windows 7 insists on users'feedback and put into practice and development all the time. Based on Beta, does RC own a series of feedback? The answer is definitely yes. Well then, see the desktop improvement first!

Desktop experience

The taskbar thumbnail overflow, with scaling mechanism, really turns into a list view completely. There is a small close button on the thumbnail previews, which inspires them to add a similar one when it's showing as a list. Compared with right-clicking, to run down the list with close button is really a fantastic thing. This toolbar has been well experienced on Windows XP and Vista. Sans thumbnails are viewed architecturally the same as the thumbnail view. No clicking needs to open in Beta, each close buttons and the menus are realized opening on hover in RC.

While the Control Panel Jump List improvement takes users' feedback into operation. We all hope there is something shown in the Jump list when pinned to the taskbar. Now, right-clicking on the control panel icon in Beta, the control panel jump list in RC supplies quick access to recent used items. Similarly, power shell jump and desktop jump lists made us smile and enjoying their alternation. Taskbar settings could be further customized. In Beta, the OS is not shutdown properly, settings do not persist. But in RC, these settings can be saved within 30seconds. Settings will presently be more reliable.

Windows Explorer and Libraries

Here a window Explorer and Libraries is another main advantage in RC. Recording to the parent folder, it will be listed in the address bar all the time with an always single click in a predictable location. Even without enough room to display, truncated name goes into the overflow. No matter tight space or truncated names, parent folder will all constantly remain as a click target in the address bar. Don't you feel no trouble on folder hierarchy and few multiple clicks? For RC, it is realized.

In addition, invert selection from Beta remains in RC and play a role continually. New folders, finding music, current view for search results and together with right-click in windows explorers are also improved features. Windows RC is trying to make these applications more all-sided and practical.

Device stage

Previous feedback on baseline device stage experience leads RC into integration. Device image appears on the taskbar and tasks are exposed in the jump list. Just one click away from the desktop icon or device image, shell window with all of the built-in tasks is automatically connected in the first time. At the same time, the device enhancement will be enabled when the PC makers choose to participate with their system.

On the whole, RC version does improve a lot since Beta. The above-mentioned desktop, windows libraries and device stage are just three major ones. Microsoft also improves the touch experience, devices, printers and networks. For more details, you can visit here. We are hereafter waiting and enjoying, what a fantastic tool they provide for us. And we can't wait to see RC!
