Windows 10 Preview

Yes, and I agree with you, it seems to be almost difficult that MS could change many things in their system before the RTM release ...

Money-grabbers M$ , what did we expect from lamers? Ok this was my final statement, now I am calm again

P.S It was somehow expected because of the short amount of time. It would be interesting to know how many indian programmers did they hire for this job, I bet they have little better conditions than these chinese iphone6 slave workers in the factory...

Yes that's a shame, like Nike in his time !

With "EXPERT" Options, all went fine .... there are still optimizations to do ... but the ISO is around 1.1Gb (I didn't remove all components !)

Good news is, it's a much easier job for you Winterstorm   Hahaha...

Also you could make big PR on the internet saying you are the first Windows 10 reducer

Yes ... but the new-old start menu is gone ...

Shouldn't be that hard to fix, you are also too greedy in patience to think you are already done with your home work ( Windows 10 stripping ) in few hours lol 

Yep, that's right ! And it's the best part for me ... finding how to fix this ! I think you also know what I mean ...

Actually this was no joke, I know you can do it, I am certain this will be the first Windows 10 reducer on the web.
Show the scene what you are made off 

Thank you, I really appreciate !

EDIT : I just found that Charms Bar is gone !

Also to finally close the rage topic/criticism on these M$-Trolls, now I know why M$ just renamed Windows 9 to Windows 10 and not Windows 8.2 . Their PR management is obviously better than their programmers, they working with these simple tricks which are of course effective for the consumer. The illusion always works to get the big $$$. People should not live in their artificial bubble...

P.S I am sorry for those who read my last posts in this thread, I didn't want to take away your momentum of euphoria. 
But sometimes you need to speak the harsh truth, even if it hurts. You can't walk your whole life blind...

Eventually time will heal wounds... so cheer up 

This was kinda silly attempt, if you feel depressed switch to some Linux distros hahaha

No problem my friend, you have presented your arguments with respect !

In fact, this was a really interesting discussion ...

Folks, does Windows 10 have aero glass? I mean, the semi transparent window borders that Vista and 7 had?

Winter: Are you trying on a 32 bit, or 64 bit ISO (or both)? The ISO size of 1.1 GB that you reported - was that x32 or x64?

Hey,

This is a screenshot of what it looks like in VMware Player after using WinReducer 10.0 alpha build :


And of course it's for a x64 architecture ... ... And there are some optimizations needed to improve the reducing, but this will not be a big deal !

hey one question. when you click [Win-Key]+[E] this "home "opens like you see on winters screenshot above.

is there a way so it will get with this combination to "This PC" ? i dont like this "home" thing...

So far, i still like windows10 even if its full of crap at the moment xD

From the screenshot, there seems to be no aeroglass effect. Pity, because there were rumours that they would bring back aero, just like they brought back the start menu.  But then it could also be due to the fact that Winter is running it on a VM, and that display drivers don't work the same way.

Anyway, can winreducer 10 be run on windows 8.1? Or do we have to install an unreduced Win 10 first?

I agree with a previous poster who said that you ought to publicize your program, as you will most likely be the first to release such a program for win 10. Remember how famous 'Nuhi' became, for winlite?

My dad's laptop has such a small SSD (16 gb) that it would have been impossible to run Win 8.1 on it, without reducing it first.

 im running win10 on a live machine:



the taskbar is transparent

For me is no different from 8.1 - yes, even without the driver installations to video personalization hangs when replacing wallpaper on your desktop..

Hahaha Guys you are already using it as your live OS? I tell you yesterday I have observed that it has many bugs.
Sometimes when you open some window-settings it freezes, sometimes when you shutdown an explorer.exe error message pops up.
It is not stable enough now

Also I personally wouldn't use it now because it is sending all your data to Microsoft-Mainserver. First you need to remove all the spyware that is implemented...

Yes, I'm agree with you, the best choice is to use it on a virtual machine ...

But, in the other hand, to really know what the windows engine could provide, it's better to install it on a physical machine ... and only for testing purpose !

@torrentus : It has been fast to fix it ... because there is an option in the taskbar properties to activate/desactivate it ...

I knew it  , great work! I will try to manually strip it down... We should make a remove list!

Hey,
1) No glass effect ... like in Windows 8.x.x
2) For Alpha builds, yes WinReducer 10.0 will be available in Windows 8.1.1 installed systems ... until we find something that prevent this possibility !
3) Thank you very much for your support, and ideas, I've updated the website, the facebook fan page to inform everyone that WinReducer 10.0 will be out soon ! With an alpha test reserved to "LIFETIME VIP", like I promised them to bring exclusivity to give a try at new software version before all others ...

Btw did you guys tried the winsxs removal on Winodws 8/8.1 like it did work on Windows 7? I don't know if it works, didn't even try Windows 8/8.1 but I guess it could work? If so, we could apply it on Windows 10. This would help us enormous to reduce Windows 10

Yes, because I've found that new Modern UI apps are available (a "Windows Feedback") or windows defender is not working like previously ...
