Windows On Windows<p>Windows Codename Longhorn build 4093, from August 2004, is the last available build of what would become Windows Vista (2006), before its infamous “development reset”. As such, it contains many prototype features that were either vastly reworked for Vista, or scrapped altogether. <a href="https://mas.to/tags/DailyWindowsFact" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DailyWindowsFact</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Microsoft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Microsoft</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Windows</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/WindowsVista" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WindowsVista</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/WindowsLonghorn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WindowsLonghorn</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/WindowsCodenameLonghorn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WindowsCodenameLonghorn</span></a></p>
Windows On Windows<p>Windows Codename Longhorn build 3683, from September 2002, is the 1st known build of Windows Vista (2006). It had features that didn’t make the final release, such as a login screen clock &amp; centred title bar text. Both would eventually arrive a decade later in Windows 8 (2012). 🤯 <a href="https://mas.to/tags/DailyWindowsFact" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DailyWindowsFact</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Microsoft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Microsoft</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Windows</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/WindowsVista" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WindowsVista</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/WindowsLonghorn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WindowsLonghorn</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/WindowsCodenameLonghorn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WindowsCodenameLonghorn</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Windows8" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Windows8</span></a></p>
Windows On Windows<p>The Start Page is a feature found in early development builds of Windows Codename Longhorn, which would eventually release as Windows Vista (2006). It appears to be a precursor to the Welcome Centre that debuted in Vista, and can be traced as far back as build 3683 in late 2002. <a href="https://mas.to/tags/DailyWindowsFact" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DailyWindowsFact</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Microsoft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Microsoft</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Windows</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/WindowsVista" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WindowsVista</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/WindowsLonghorn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WindowsLonghorn</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/WindowsCodenameLonghorn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WindowsCodenameLonghorn</span></a></p>
Windows On Windows<p>Windows Vista (2006) added a search box to the Start menu. This let users type to search instantly on opening the menu. Previously, users needed to click a Search option within Start to launch the Search UI first.
