Windows 7 build 6956 is a pre-beta build of Windows 7, which was shared online as an x86 Ultimate compile on 4 December 2008 and is currently the last available build before the official beta release. The build was first found in a VHD dump originating from a Samsung NC100 notebook, and can be deployed using the WinPE of build 6801.[1] This build, as well as other ensuing builds up to build 7022, has hidden features in Internet Explorer 8 that can only be unlocked via apps such as Bluepill.

This build has been mislabeled as build 6965 in multiple sources, including ZDNet, which has posted a few screenshots of build 6956 with the article name mislabeled.[2]

Changes[edit | edit source]

User interface[edit | edit source]

  • The Start orb now has less-appearing outlines.
  • In the Start menu, the shutdown button has been reverted to its previous size.
  • The places bar of the legacy Common File Dialog seems to be disabled by default like in build 6910.
  • User Account Control now shows a background again.

Applications[edit | edit source]

  • The About page of Windows Media Center now references Windows 7, removing the final reference of Windows Vista.
  • Windows Media Player setup has been updated.

Control Panel[edit | edit source]

Action Center, ClearType Text Tuner, Default Location, and Location and Other Sensors received new icons.

Bugs and quirks[edit | edit source]

Upgrade[edit | edit source]

  • It is not possible to upgrade to 6956 with the current leak as the ISO image uses 6801’s setup components; they can be substituted with build 7000’s by replacing its install.wim with the one from this build.
  • Upgrading to this build will result in an additional Windows Media Player icon being placed on the Superbar if there are only up to two pinned Windows Media Player icons beforehand, along with the user being asked to change their password as the upgrade finishes.

Gallery[edit | edit source]

  • Welcome

  • Desktop without DWM effects.

  • Desktop slideshow and Superbar settings

  • Internet Explorer 8

  • UAC

  • Demo

  • Desktop from the original VHD

Changes[]

  • The Superbar once again has minor appearance changes, including a more-bluish accent and less-appearing outlines around places such as the Start orb.
  • Many features — such as the desktop slideshow — are now enabled by default, leaving the only features locked behind Redpill being a few changes in Internet Explorer 8.
  • The places bar of the legacy Common File Dialog seems to be disabled by default like in build 6910.

Название: Русская сборка Microsoft Windows 7 build 6956 32-бит fix ISO
Категория: Операционные системы
Версия: Microsoft Windows 7 build 6956 32-бит
Разработчик: Корпорация Майкрософт
Год выпуска: 2008
Платформа: х86 (32бит)
Язык интерфейса: русский
Размер файла: 2,23Gb
Описание: Windows 7 (ранее известная под кодовыми названиями Blackcomb и Vienna) — название новой операционной системы семейства Windows, последующей за Windows Vista, которая предположительно должна выйти в 2009-2010 гг.
В состав Windows 7 должны войти некоторые разработки, исключенные из Windows Vista как и новшества в интерфейсе и встроенных программах. Windows 7 должна стать новым шагом в развитии операционных систем Microsoft.

Windows 7 будет обладает поддержкой multitouch-мониторов. Эта возможность была продемонстрирована Microsoft на ежегодной конференции TechEd’08 в Орландо. В ходе демонстрации использовалась сборка 6.1.6589, а также опытная модель ноутбука с multitouch-экраном. По некоторым данным в Windows 7 будет частично реализован функционал, запланированный в Longhorn (она же Vista). Также планируется более тесная интеграция с программами и сервисами Windows Live.

Доп. информация: Компиляция и локализация образа на русский язык выполнена на базе официальной локализации windows vista с учетом дополнений и изменений которые произошли, а это примерно 54% изменений системы. Русификация была выполнена: © loginvovchyk & Staforce.

Изданная на прошлой неделе внутренняя сборка Microsoft Windows 7 build 6956 вновь оказалась в torrent-сетях.

В Microsoft предполагают, что утечка произошла после проведения конференции в Пекине, когда работу Windows 7 демонстрировали публично. Будущая ОС, скорее всего, «утекла» в доступную сеть в виде VHD-образа, после чего ее мог скачать любой желающий.

Ранее в сети появилась версия системы 6801, которая распространялась на конференциях Microsoft’s Professional Developers Conference (PDC) и Windows Hardware Engineering Conference (WinHEC). Очередная копия образа оказалась в сети аналогичным способом в прошедшее воскресенье и уже через два часа сборку скачали более двух тысяч человек.

Как заявляют представители Microsoft, ранее 2010 года корпорация не планирует распространять новую систему среди обычных пользователей, а ранее этого срока будущая ОС будет предоставляться только доверенным специалистам для проведения тестирования.
