Windows 7 Build 7700 Spotted (Early Windows 8?)
Free Direct Download Windows 7 Build 7700 Spotted (Early Windows 8?)
Windows 7 build 7600 is the RTM version that's on all the new PCs today. It's the version that was completed shipped by Microsoft last summer – but it appears as though the developers are still tinkering away at it.
reported that a Russian site Wzor, which has a history of Windows leaks, posted screenshots from a post-RTM Windows 7 build 7700.
While many of you will find the screenshot completely uneventful, given that there does not appear to be any visual changes aside from the version number, the real news here comes from the build strings that tell us the progress that Microsoft is making.
The latest leak is 7700.winmain.100122-1900, which tells us that it is build 7700 and it was compiled in the 'winmain' lab on January 22, 2010 at 1900 hours.
Build strings leading up to this latest one are:
7650.0.winmain.090917-1843
7651.0.winmain.090924-1802
7656.0.winmain.091015-0833
7658.0.winmain.091019-1850
7659.0.winmain.091020-1830
7660.0.winmain.091021-1736
7661.0.winmain.091022-1755
7662.0.winmain.091023-1645
7664.0.winmain.091027-1825
7691.0.winmain.100106-1825
7692.0.winmain.100107-1735
7693.0.winmain.100111-1820
7694.0.winmain.100113-1753
7695.0.winmain.100114-1855
7696.0.winmain.100115-1725
Watching numbers count upwards is fairly uneventful, but it does prove that progress is being made on top of existing Windows Vista and Windows 7 code – perhaps en route to the release of Windows 8 slated for 2011.

Where can it be obtained from then? It appears to be removed from download-gate.
