Today, Microsoft is excited to announce the availability of Windows
Vista RC2 to Technical Beta Testers, TAP Testers, and MSDN/TechNet
subscribers. This new build of Windows Vista offers users a higher level
of performance and stability – improving what was established in Windows
Vista RC1. We were able to also take in much of your bugs reported from
RC1 and implement them for RC2. Thank you to our beta testers for the
bugs and feedback you submitted for RC1. The improvement shows as we
raised our quality bar even higher!
Platforms and Services Co-President Jim Allchin has just posted a
special announcement letter of RC2 to Microsoft Connect for the Windows
Vista Technical Beta Testers. I’d like to reproduce the letter here for
all to read:
People asked for it, and here it is, Windows Vista RC2! We wanted you to
be the first to get these bits; next week they’ll be available to a
broader set of customers via MSDN and TechNet.
All your great feedback has helped us focus on nothing but bug fixes
over the past month since RC 1 — each and every day. There are thousands
of quality improvements since Windows Vista RC1. You’ll probably notice
improvements in performance, application compatibility, as well as fit
and finish work. We will continue improving quality until RTM. If you
are an ISV, please use this build (certainly at least RC1 or later) to
get certified. Visit www.innovateonvista.com for more information on
logo certification.
You are integral to this creation and refinement process. We are just
around the corner from RTM and shipping this great product to the world.
This will be the last build made available prior to RTM, so please keep
the feedback coming so we can hit the finish line. Thanks for your help
in finishing the job!

I encourage you to download and install Windows Vista RC2. We’re almost
finished with Windows Vista – RTM is almost here. Submit as many bugs as
you can as we continue to work hard toward shipping.
Participants in the Windows Vista Customer Preview Program will also
have access to RC2 very soon. We will update this post with links when
the files are available for download.
