The official Windows 7 Beta was released by Microsoft with the build version of 6.1.7000.0 (build 7000). This had leaked earlier to Internet via torrents. Before the official beta was released by Microsoft, screenshots of several different builds like build 7004, 7012, 7015 and 7016 of Windows 7 came up on different forums online.

The latest build to show in screenshots is Windows 7 build 7025. Microsoft has not confirmed anything about it yet but this might be true. The screenshots of Windows 7 build 7025 have been posted by a beta tester on Chinese forum. There’s are no conclusive changes in the user interface except some user interface touch ups to Control Panel, Media Player and different versions show up for installation now just like Windows Vista. Hope Microsoft will not confuse its customers like it did with Vista with many version releases.

The most notable thing in the said build 7025 is that Internet Explorer 8 has changed from Beta to Release Candidate 1 version 8.0.7025.0. The said screenshots show that Windows 7 Build 7025 has build version of 7025.0.x86fre.winmain.09120-1850, and is compiled on January 20th, 2009 at 1850 hours. The installed copy of Windows 7 Build 7025 will expire on July 2nd, 2009 too.
