Windows Longhorn build 4053.main.031022-1720 is a Milestone 7 build of the Windows Longhorn operating system, leaked on March 1, 2004.

Minimum system requirements are a 500 MHz Pentium 3 processor and 256 MB of RAM. Reportedly, memory leaks aren't as bad as they were in its predecessor, build 4051. WinFS is included with this build.

Networking support has been improved from 4051, and issues with icons have been fixed.

Issues

The normal method of creating user accounts does not work in this build. Accounts can still be created with the control userpasswords2 command, however.
The History feature of Internet Explorer does not work.
The MFU list of the Windows Start menu resets after every reboot.
If a menu overlaps the Windows Sidebar, it may remove the gradient from under the overlapped area. To correct this, resize a Tile over the affected area, and return it to its original size.
If Windows Explorer or Internet Explorer stop responding, the classic title bar may be seen.
In Outlook 2003, when you click on “Personal Folders”, it displays the HTML source of Outlook Today instead of the rendered page.

-This longhorn build contains the slate user interface and was released (leaked) on March 1, 2004. It's requirements state it needs at least a 500 MHz Pentium 3 processor and 256 MB of RAM to function. This build contains [[WinFS|WinFS]] which was supposed to be the next generation of file storage being implemented into Longhorn. The build supposedly does not have as bad as a memory leak as did its predecessor, 4051. It was stated by Chriis123NT as the "most responsive" since 4051.

-===Differences from 4051===
-As said before it does not leak as much memory as did as before. Networking support had been fixed, icons have also been fixed and now display correctly, as well as the Internet Explorer 6.05 Download Manager. That has been fixed as well.
 ===Issues===

+*The normal method of creating user accounts does not work in this build. Accounts can still be created with the ''control userpasswords2'' command, however.
