Win7之家（ afsion.com.cn）：Windows7 SP1 來了！需修改注冊表升級

微軟正在準(zhǔn)備發(fā)布Windows 7 SP1和Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1。一家第三方新聞網(wǎng)站報道稱，微軟已經(jīng)開始準(zhǔn)備推出首個Win7 SP1的外部測試版。

據(jù)WithinWindows網(wǎng)站報道，微軟將按照Beta版服務(wù)包的發(fā)布慣例（就是同Vista一樣）推出Windows 7 SP1 Beta。因此，微軟將開始測試各版Windows 7操作系統(tǒng)，以鑒定適合測試Windows 7 SP1 Beta的版本。測試人員可以通過Windows更新服務(wù)（需要添加注冊表）提供的Windows 7 SP1 Beta測試下載工具下載新版本。

下面是需要添加的注冊表鍵值位置：

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\Win7SP1

測試者需要寫入一個REG_SZ值 SPORTM （本鍵值的實(shí)際內(nèi)容隨后確認(rèn)后公布）

Windows7之家剛剛發(fā)了一個圖文說明：《Win7 SP1 修改注冊表升級的說明事項(xiàng)》。

截止發(fā)稿前，微軟官方尚未確認(rèn)已經(jīng)向外部測試者發(fā)布Windows 7 SP1 Beta。

據(jù)悉，微軟公司于去年7月底正式完成Windows7的開發(fā)。2009年7月22日，Windows 7 RTM和Windows Server 2008 R2 RTM正式發(fā)布。因此，微軟早在2009年10月22日之前就已經(jīng)開始開發(fā)Win7 SP1。

Windows 7 SP1 Is Cooking, External Testing Build Coming

Microsoft is gearing up for an important stage in the testing of its first major update to the latest iteration of the Windows client. The Redmond company traditionally releases the first Service Pack for a new Windows OS approximately one year after the platform was finalized, and is currently cooking SP1 for Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2. A third-party report indicates that the software giant has started preparing Windows 7 copies for the delivery of the first external testing development milestone of Windows 7 SP1.

According to WithinWindows, Microsoft is following the same strategy for Windows 7 as for previous Beta service pack rollouts outside of Redmond. In this regard, the company began enabling a check within Windows 7 operating systems, which would qualify the respective versions as candidates for testing the SP1 Beta. The process involves refreshes served through Windows Update in order to add a registry key as well as an associated value which will permit members in the Windows 7 SP1 Beta testing pool to download the new bits.

Here is the Key added to Windows 7 RTM machines: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\Win7SP1 and this is the value coming with it SPORTM (REG_SZ). At the time of this article, Microsoft had yet to either confirm or deny the fact that external tester had been approached for Win7 SP1 Beta testing.

Don’t be deceived by the fact that Windows 7 was released on October 22nd, 2009, when attempting to calculate when SP1 will be delivered for the operating system. Fact is that Microsoft finalized Windows 7 at the end of July. It was on July 22nd that Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 were released to manufacturing, plenty of time for the software giant to start working on the first service pack for the latest versions of the Windows client and server platforms.
