Windows 10: New Windows Terminal v1.7.1901.0 released for Windows 10 - April 19

This version of Windows Terminal exists only to address compatibility issues with the Scoop package manager.

The only change in this release addresses a crash that was introduced in the 1.7 stable and 1.8 preview releases, encountered when Terminal was run outside of its application package.

This release is not intended for store installation (though store installation will work.)
We will not be releasing this version to the Microsoft Store.

This release does not come with a preinstallation kit (unlike the prior stable release.)

Bug Fixes

• We fixed a crash on launch that you would encounter when running terminal unpackaged (#9893)

As a note: unpackaged activation receives only best-effort support. A package manager that is relying on it is not using a fully-supported activation path for Terminal.

Microsoft Confirms Windows 7 Release Candidate Will Launch on April 10 2009

In an exclusive interview with the guys at Neowin.net, Microsoft have confirmed, that provided no serious problems arise, they are on track to release Windows 7 RC on April 10. As yet the only changes which are known about, are User Account Control (UAC) fixes which prevent malware from disabling UAC all together.

More information about the development of Windows 7 comes from Geeksmack, with their email conversation with Steven Sinofsky, Microsoft Senior Vice President of Windows. Sinofsky said, "We have received an amazing amount of feedback, many suggestions for new features too, during the beta—over 500,000 suggestions just from the Send Feedback button." What was also interesting to note, "... by far the most humorous element has been that the build numbers blogged about are higher than our current build. Today’s build is 7046, but it hasn’t completed yet *Smile "
Sinofsky is also said to have spoken to Ars Technica, and said that, "The build will be available broadly".
