Oh, I guess that's good, but I wonder how I got so lucky since a lot of people have installed the build successfully (not counting the SaB problem, I mean). Has MS admitted to this somewhere?

Anyone get to 26100 successfully with SaB? WU just reboots right back into Windows for me and reports a WU error of 0xc1900101. I've never seen SaB cause that before, but considering the above dialog (which I didn't see because I wasn't doing an ISO-style update, which I assume is what that was from) I have to consider the possibility. Retrying it a couple more times yielded the same result. Am on 3.7.8 (26090). Update; If this is because of SaB, it would be pretty puzzling since it also occurs after disabling SaB.

26085: no drama

@Tihiy Thanks for the quick work for 26080. Vertical is back!

Yes, so no vertical taskbar in 26080, at least that is clear to me, but I'm not sure about anything else which may or may not be working (with 3.7.6). Will happily try a test build when advised to.

I guess I'll soon be seeing how well this works with Canary these days, even though I'm in Dev. Dev has been moved up to the same level as Canary (26052). Canary will stay on the same track as Dev for a while (giving people a chance to easily change channels to Dev if they wish) before it shoots ahead to a higher series in some unspecified future week (I would guess at least a couple weeks from now). Update: What we've seen be a sticking point in the past is the vertical toolbar, but that is not a problem. I initially thought it might be, since it was switched to horizontal (even after I thought I clicked Enable, as usual, post build update), but I went into Control Panel to enable it there, and once the shell restarted it was fine.

The two I initially looked at do, but beyond that what does it mean relative to the feature that we're talking about that the same app can have different IDs at different times? I know for sure that it's the same app because of the 2008 thing.

Yes, they do. It's a truly ancient (2008) app called ClipMate. I'm attaching a zipped version of a reg export for those six items. Trayiconscm.rar

Ah yes, thanks. In coming from 3.6.last to 3.7.1, I noticed that my clipboard program was listed 6 times in the Tray Icons menu, but I found them there in the reg to delete. I suspect this is because they had distinct "InitialTooltip" (given that the clipboard program puts what you're copying to the clipboard in the tooltip), but that's just a guess.

Since we're in the RC stage now, when 3.7 goes final, will it be what even non-Canary users get? I ask because of the emphasis in this thread to discuss 3.7 in connection with Canary only.

That pic a few posts above, of 15 or so tray icons, reminds me to ask: are there any plans in 3.7 to keep track of whether those are hidden or not? The reason I ask is that information is lost when you do a Windows build upgrade, which some of us do about 50 times a year. It would be almost magical at this point if SaB could have its own system for keeping track of them so Windows doesn't screw them up every single upgrade.

I assume you mean if "Check for updates" is clicked from 3.6.16? At first I thought this might be a reference to a check box which would opt someone into the beta from this release, but I don't see one.

Was anyone shunted to a Windows setup screen about continuing to use facial and fingerprint recognition (neither of which I use) when upgrading to the .15 release? I've never seen that screen before, so it was a surprise. I chose one, since there seemed to be no other choice, clicked Next, and it then opened Settings, Accounts, Sign-in options. 23570

Nice, thanks. I was getting a little worried by what happened in Canary given that I'm on Dev and therefore on any given week some or all of the relevant changes from Canary could have migrated over without warning, musical-chairs style.

Is that in Dev? At least there, I haven't seen Copilot at all, perhaps because I have it disabled in group policy (User Config, Admin Templates, Windows Components). There would also be an equivalent Registry mod to do the same for those without gpedit.
