Two more smaller changes I've found on build 29648 The first being that there is now a "ms-systemcomposer" URI (HKCR\ms-systemcomposer) The second being that some shell related URIs now have a LocalOnly flag for requests that come from a Remote Session

Windows Media Player Legacy has been nerfed slightly in build 29648. It is no longer possible to enable "Lyrics, captions, and subtitles". Attempting to do so will tell you to go use the modern Media Player. The menu has also been nerfed

Dark mode sounds mostly work in build 29639 👀 The only one I'm not hearing is the UAC sound effect. But hardware sounds are working

Decided to try out a new style of desk lamp and I love it, especially since it works over USB, which saves me a plug socket. Even though I blinded myself when I first turned it in.

Wait, so it's not my keyboard that is dying? It's an issue with the latest canary builds where my keyboard stops working until I unplug and replug?

Fun fact. By setting ProgressUXType to 0 in C:\$WINDOWS.~BT\sources\SetupPlatform.ini right before the second stage of setup begins. You can get back the early Win10 era setup screen. This still works as of build 27943

Installing windows via the i386 folder didn't last that long all things considered. WinNT 3.1 used it (First seen in 1991 builds) and Longhorn Build 4001 used WIM (December 2002) So the WIM format in one form has been around for 23 years. Whereas i386 was around for 11 years
