Throbber dot wait cursor on leaked Windows 8 beta

Post by BeemoKincaid »

Does anyone catch a leaked Windows 8 build where they changed the waiting Aero cursor with a spinning dots instead of the spinning blue circle which can be seen on the final release and still used on Windows 10?

IIRC Build 8102 was the first build which used spinning dots cursor.

No, first build to use spinning dots cursor in login screen is 8008 (if Redpilled), and first build to use spinning dots cursor in boot screen is 7973 (fbl_core1_kernel_npc, and it doesn't require Redpill)

Are they stored somewhere else before redpill? I checked C:\Windows\Cursors on both 8008 & 8102 and both of them have the normal Aero cursor...
