Windows Longhorn build 4042 (main) is one of the last Milestone 6 builds of Windows Longhorn. It was compiled four days prior to its Lab06_n compile.
On 23 January 2020, this build was listed on a thread by UX.Unleaked blog founder Grabberslasher to be released to BetaArchive’s FTP server, and was released in the twelfth and final set of his 33 Longhorn/Vista builds on 4 February 2020 along with build 4082, build 4087 and build 5492. Prior to its publication, this build was shown off on the previously mentioned blog.
This is the last build to contain the Plex theme and the Pig Latin build tag strings.
Similiarly to build 4040, many aspects of the user interface remain identical to build 4038.
New features and changes[edit | edit source]
- Safe mode now functions as intended, as the «User Profiles Service» and «Group Policy Service» services are now enabled by default in safe mode after the login process change done in build 4032.
- The «Change a password…» option has been added to Windows Security Screen.

Windows Longhorn build 4042.Lab06_n.030909-1709, is probably the first Milestone 7 «Longhorn» build. It was first described by Grabberslasher in his UX.Unleaked blog on 2008-07-07.
This build was compiled 2003-09-09 and hides an interesting surprise; While the setup is the same as in M6 builds, the desktop brings to us a new theme known as Slate, which seems to be the forerunner to Windows Vista’s Aero theme. It features a black theming (as opposed to Plex’s Blue, Plex was never intended as a complete theme, but rather as a placeholder) and a background reminiscent of the one from the M3 builds.
In the Start Menu, some folder locations have had the ‘My’ dropped from their names, although not all: the ‘My Documents’ folder goes to the traditional shell location, whereas the ‘Documents’ folder goes to the library system similar to that found in Windows 7.
Please note: There are in fact two builds that carry the number 4042. This one (developed by the user interface-oriented build lab 6) and a second one (developed by the main build lab and compile dated 2003-09-05). This second build, while technically a Milestone 7 build, features many characteristics of Milestone 6 builds; it still has the M6 background, the Plex theme, etc. Do not confuse the two! The one which introduced new features has ‘lab06’ in its build string.
The Watermark was Removed for Pig Latin, and it’s called «Longhorn Professional».
Features[]
- This build marks the debut of the Slate theme, which was first seen publicly in the 4050 builds during PDC 2003, and the official PDC build, 4051.idx02.031001-1340.
-
- a new boot screen and welcome/secure desktop screen
- a complete upgrade to the shell, bringing a much cleaner UI and better access to new features.
- M6 Aero Glass
- Only the most important Sidebar tiles are present, possibly the same tiles that are present in 4051.
- The «3D View» option in Explorer is missing, making the Panorama and Carousel view styles inaccessible.
- StickyNotes — This application is hidden at the Windows\WinSxS folder. Unlike in the WinHEC 2004 build 4074.idx02.040425-1535, Stickies work by simply dragging an empty text file onto the StickyNote icon.

Most of you will be familiar with Microsoft’s OS released after XP, Windows Vista! This OS was pretty revolutionary for its time, and the development has to be the most interesting of any Windows version. Today, we are going to be taking a look at one of the builds early in the development!

Сборка 6.0.4042.Lab06_N.030909-1709 относится к числу первых сборок этапа Milestone 7, что не так уж сложно заметить. Новый экран загрузки (сборка 4051) и экран приветствия — все говорит о том, что перед вами новая сборка Longhorn.
Тут вас встречают абсолютно новые обои, из которых позднее родилась новая тема — Slate. При огромном количестве изменений в интерфейсе изменений в функциях было не столь много: в Sidebar были оставлены только самые важные tiles, а опция 3D View из Windows Explorer была удалена. Таким образом, режимы просмотра Panorama и Carousel более не были доступны. Тем не менее, в данной сборке появилась новая функция, которая была спрятана в папке WinSxS — StickyNotes. В отличие от сборки 4074 для WinHEC 2004, StickyNotes работали сразу же при перемещении пустого текстового файла на иконку StickyNote. Кроме всего прочего, Glass в M7 стал намного более удобнее, чем в сборке 4040. Полюбуйтесь на первые скриншоты M6 Aero Glass в новой теме Slate: Источник: thevista.ru Оцените статью: Голосов |
