You should probably just grab the Windows Upgrade Advisor and get it installed.

I’m a little puzzled here—how on earth did you get your hands on an RTM build when it hasn't even been released on Technet yet? Are you working over at Microsoft in Redmond or something? I have to be honest, I’ve seen a ton of fake RTM builds floating around out there lately. You really ought to double-check those build numbers; they should definitely be in the 76xx range. I just can't wrap my head around how these could actually be the real deal. 🙂

It just seems highly unlikely that what you have is actually the real deal. 🙂
just look at the picture .....check the version number below

They aren't active just yet—I'm still waiting on a decent crack to come along, I guess.

It’s possible. 😁 Look for version 7600.16385 😉

Does anyone have a working solution for a virtual drive? I just tried installing virtual CD, but it’s a total bust. alcohol isn't cooperating either. I managed to get PowerISO installed, but it won't actually accept the image when I try to mount it. Daemon Tools is out of the question too...
Any other options out there?

I just finished installing Windows 7 and everything seems to be running smoothly so far...
There is just this one specific thing I can't seem to get right—I'm trying to move folders around on my drive just like you’d move icons around on the desktop. I want to drag a folder to a new spot and have it actually stay there, instead of the system snapping it back to its original position...
Basically, it keeps sorting everything alphabetically. For instance, if I have a folder starting with "M" and I try to place it next to a folder starting with "C," I can't—it just forces it back into line with the other "M" folders...
Does anyone happen to know how to fix this?

Right now, it keeps sorting everything alphabetically, so if I try to move a folder starting with "m" next to a folder starting with "c," it just forces it back into the "m" section along with all the others...
Does anyone know how to fix this setting?
Just rename it so it starts with "c" instead of "m," then you'll have "cm" and they'll sit right next to each other...😬

Wait, are you seriously suggesting this is the genuine RTM and that it’s been out in the wild for about ten days already? If that’s the case, then Microsoft is dealing with some incredibly massive security leaks on their hands... 🙂

RTMOv was launched on July 13th, but once the leak happened, it felt like the whole thing just fell apart and lost its momentum.

And what about the times when it wasn't? 😁

So half the internet is just wrong now? And hardware manufacturers supposedly got some RC build? I guess I’ve been working on this thing for a week without realizing it. 😉

Funny... but if they don't actually include that, then screw their Windows—I might just stick with my old setup instead... 😠

Jonathan Morris40 said:It isn't strictly necessary to enter the key during the initial installation process, but looking ahead... you are required to activate Windows within a 30-day window, otherwise, the system will essentially become unusable.
Code:
sysprep /generalize
slmgr.vbs –rearm
rundll32 slc.dll,SLReArmWindows
slmgr /rearm
slmgr.vbs –rearm
rundll32 slc.dll,SLReArmWindows
slmgr /rearm
Executing these commands resets the internal counter. Since the rearm function can be performed three times on a single machine, one could theoretically extend the grace period to a total of 120 days—calculated as the initial 30 days plus three subsequent 30-day extensions.
