    An older build 10014 of Windows 10 with Spartan has leaked


    Posted: 23 Mar 2015

    A few days back, we got our hands on a build of Windows 10 with Spartan and even though Microsoft has not released a build with the browser, you can now try it out for yourself if you are willing to install a leaked build.

    An older WIM file of Windows 10 build 10014 has leaked that has Spartan enabled and if you know where to look, you can download this file and try out the new browser for yourself. It is worth pointing out that this particular build is highly unstable and despite having Spartan, it's probably best to skip this leak.

    If somebody will make an iso from the wim, I'll give it a whirl! :)
    I don't have the time or patience for that.

    Making a post from it right now.. nothing special so far... seems to be working but I know it's going to take a lot more work for prime time usage.

    Pretty crappy, it is!
    This iteration of it is snappy enough but there's no definition to anything; reminds of that crappy UC Browser from the Store.

    I hope they're a lot farther ahead with the first official offering of Spartan than this!
    This iteration works ok and is fairly 'snappy' but it's kinda dull and featureless.
    Definitely runs within an app container and, much to my dismay, YouTube audio shuts down when minimized to the taskbar!
    I hope that just a bug!
    Not much to brag about so far! :)

    Hi there

    Unlike the usual "nay Sayers" I think if it eventually "Works as advertised" it will be a real winner --I like the idea for example if I'm looking up a specific Bar for example the map / hours of opening/ other features would be really handy.

    One needs to be a bit wary of these "Intelligent" features though -- it would be very easy for Advertisers to start screwing up the search mechanism.

    For example I might want info on Quantum computers -- instead of the Physics of them and how they work I might get all sorts of references to manufacturers called "Quantum computers" and zillions of references to shopping sites.

    My real Horror of Horrors though would be if I enter BEER and a reference comes up to "Budweiser". I think I'd chuck the computer into a freezing cold Atlantic Ocean !!!.

    I won't try the leaked build as I'm sure an "Official" one will appear shortly - IMO probably just after Easter in a couple of weeks or so.

    Cheers

    One thing I am interested if it is in this build

    Can you go to the Bing home page in it?

    On windows phone if you try to go to Bing it just opens up Cortana

    Just curious

    I noticed that too.
    The premature build I was fooling around with didn't have Cortana integrated yet.
