Windows 8, Microsoft’s next generation desktop operating system, has started appearing on various online sites, but there are very few people who are actually running this OS on their computer. Microsoft team is testing Windows 8 Pre-beta/Windows 8 Alpha OS with its selected group of manufacturers, and it can’t be used on other machines for any purpose.
Although Microsoft is trying hard to keep their work secret, the leakers have uploaded three recent builds i.e. Milestone 1, Milestone 2 and Milestone 3 on the torrent sites. Of course, it’s not safe to download those files, as you will have to deal with password scams, viruses and fake files.
One more interesting thing is that Microsoft has applied some security measures to hide important features of the upcoming OS. In case you want to test those features, you will need to try and implement patches and hacks. These tricks can also damage your computer’s performance and experience.
A couple of Windows 8 testers have published videos of Windows 8 Alpha builds, which will give you an idea about this OS. You will notice that Microsoft team hasn’t changed much in terms of UI, and it’s not worth to install these Pre-beta builds -
