- Most Windows beta builds tend to have an expiry date. But the real question is, what happens when a Windows beta actually expires? The answer varies through various Windows versions from 95 up to 11.

Microsoft in windows 10 and earlier: man we can’t let him use it
Microsoft in 11:eh let him use it and just send a message
Microsoft: No problem lets just place a message on the screen saying "Install A New Build Of Windows" and theres will be no update button so,lets wait for the Pc to shutdown or restart
@confident being fjattar it can use normally, but like Windows 7 RTM, you can't change theme and wallpaper and it have a watermark
Flight signed timebombs stopped midway through the insider development for creators update
windows all the way before 11: I'M GOING TO KILL MYSELF IF I'M USED PAST THE EXPIRATION
windows 11: hey bro I advise you update me bro but no rush
@@supercellex4D i was testing old windows builds and always got so confused about how some windows builds shoot themselves in the forehead if the time is a second past their expiration date while others just complain
Nobody:
That one WinXP build: HOW ABOUT I JUST *KILL WINLOGIN-* (frigging dies)
It's idiot😂💀
@@thinhbui4182 You're not really funny.
Its winlogon
😅😅😅😅😅😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Those Windows XP/Longhorn ones were BRUTAL with the BSOD
Not more than 9x patching itself to be unbootable
and windows 10 breaking winload
@@jakeyounglol i miss windows xp and whistler ;-;
@@jakeyounglol atleast windows 8's betas let you use it for an hour
@@carlos_did_a_thingprobably enough time to actually get a retail version of windows to install
9x: Sorry, this demo expired! System will now break...
XP-some vista betas:Sorry, this build has expired!, Winlogon.exe will be terminated.... *BSOD*
Vista-8:The system will no longer allow you to customize.
10:Breaking bootlader....
11:Please consider upgrading.
The breaking bootloader mechanism wasnt applied anymore in Windows 10 beta builds starting mid-RS2 builds with the 1st one being Build 14965. Since then every Windows 10 builds after build 14965 and higher boots on current date, but the behaviors are different from Windows 8 betas.
Vista will still log you out tho
@@Victorek95translate?
@@Annielogue_YT bro i was joking
Also, minor missing detail for Windows 8 builds:
You are locked on the default Windows background as your desktop background, with the only exception being Solid Colour. Trying to replace the background file in this state won't work, and will, if you brute force it, just lock it onto solid colour.
Ah, so you are British? I see your spelling of color.
@@TtEL colour,color,cor same thing but they might be Canadian
Usually its rare for some. Installing Windows 7/8/8.1 betas on compile date and installing VMware Tools, will result to "Reinstall Windows" nag but no effect of wallpaper turn to black, etc. Its usually SPP related rather than timebomb related.
What happen when remove solid color
bo'wo'wo'wah
Oh cool, thank God I check an update every day update from Beta to release version for W11, and then I have a release. Thank you for showing us about the Beta expiration. I didn't know about that
WOW, I didn't know Windows could do that with betas 😱
@Noah Shaun Oh WOW
@Noah Shaun I read this 3 times to get what you were trying to say lmao
@@doge7831 Which Linux OS? Ubuntu? Debian? Arch? SuSE? Can you be more specific please? XD
@@NomoArabinho any? It doesn't have to be specific
@@doge7831 I like (and personally use) Linux as a whole but I think it's fair to say most people don't want/need/care to drop everything and install Linux ESPECIALLY considering that one bad update/driver/program could just as easily wipe your system and force you to reinstall, if your system is supported out of the box at all. Just look at Linus TT's ongoing series on it where on the first episode he accidentally bricked his system. 😅
Like at least with Windows you don't have to worry about compatibility or even more so your computer just dying for no particular reason; and even if something DOES happen it's super easy to get into a recovery environment and rollback the system even if it's gone unbootable (unlike most Linux systems where your best bet is to reinstall.)
Windows Whistler - Vista after expiring: So you have chosen death.
Windows 7 - 10 after expiring: You can keep using me but you're gonna have to log off every two hours, also you're stuck with a solid black background, also you can't customise.
Windows 10 after expiring: You're blocked from booting.
Windows 11 after expiring: You can keep using me, but if you could upgrade that'd be nice. No pressure though bro, just saying maybe you should update.
Everyone who hated on Windows 11 on launch, after hearing that the betas don't do anything stupid to your system after expiring: Perhaps I was too harsh on you.
This is why I got the message when I was in a technical preview build of windows 10
Maybe your evaluation period is expired so you need to buy a new one
Windows 10 beta bootloader only breaks if the build was expired for over 14 days, the first 7 days will have the same behavior as Windows 8 betas, and then the next 7 days before the bootloader breaks, Windows will block you from running any program, as opening it will causes an error.
I'm actually going to test that myself; I'm very intrigued to see it. I'll also give you a shoutout for this as well
imagine you bought that one win8 beta build and you thought its a normal one then you just get bsod for 1h of usage, thats scary
I call the restart that makes Windows 8 8102 anti addiction to the computer. And it restarts when it feels like it. Every 1 hour, every 2 hours, etc.
In Windows Longhorn build 4015, for some reason Windows let you use the system even after the license expired
4015 does have a working expiry date (confirmed today).
So is there any problem to 11 if the build expire?
@@trandinhvietdung9357 no, u just get the promt each hour or so
Hi nobel tech
@@NobelTech what is the music
Your intro chime would be great as a windows startup sound
So if beta or dev builds of Windows 11 gone expired, I can still use it. Great thing, Micro$oft.
i actually installed a windows 10 beta from the settings app, and i actually got stuck in that beta because i couldn't update due to some error with the windows update thing, and now i have a custom made windows that i made myself
I realy liked how u added not so popular versions of windows
"unknown hard error"
'my computer has a hardened error?'
"unknown hard error"
'what the fuck?'
1:59 The Windows 10 Betas build 9833-14964 use flight-signing
Windows 10-11: let this man use this software, he probably will update it
Windows XP: OUTDATED BETA VERSION, NUKING THE ENTIRE SYSTEM BECAUSE I WANT
Win 10 just breaks winload 🤣
That Means You have to Reinstall Whatever Windows Version you have If you got this. If you backed up everything Don't panic. But if you don't back up anything. Use A Partition where you can install a New os and Get those Data on it
So, get Ubuntu or something on an usb and back your shit up.
@@simplyalonso Yeah. After that. Go Install your Normal OS
Weird. On one of my Windows 11 insider beta builds it didnt give me any message. It let me use it as long as it wanted. It wasnt the newest beta though I think. I'm now on the official windows 11
Windows 11 be like: go find a new build as soon as possible
windows 10 be like: Sorry bud I don't want to use winload.exe just create a installation file with no PC
I like windows 10 more than windows 11
@@Victorek95 every one has a opinion but i think windows 11 lacks pirvacy
@@Victorek95 but i still like 11 more than 10
Didn't even know that betas can expire! Thx again!
pre 1994 builds dosent expire, they only inplanted a timebomb in a 1994 Windows 95 build and then they began doing so with other betas. Some betas dont have a timebomb, and you can remove timebomb in early Windows 10 betas@shirleydotxml
some betas that have a timebomb dosent need to change the date like Neptune 5111 or Longhorn 4074@shirleydotxml

Thanks for the content Martin, I am looking at doing a video of my own about this. The only question on my mind is, will Windows 10 allow you to use expired beta builds as this video says you can’t
The technical testing builds are useable for an infinite amount of time I had a dev build of windows 11 and there was no time limit
0:12 It’s a sign I need to stop watching YTPs for once when I read this in a I.M Meen voice for some reason
Windows 7 build 6519 has the same thing happened like Vista Build 5384 (Vista beta 2)
2:13 Thats what happened while im previewing a version of w11 before it releases
How did you even manage to do that?
@@hahaitsme build the iso manually and enjoy ur nuew pc!!!111
We are literally using Window 10 ON Windows 7! You can tell because if you go to the command prompt in Windows 10 recovery the interface it shows is literally Windows 7
Because there is no dwm on the winpe and winre. The DWM is only used on the normal install. As it is not necessary to have the fancy things when On the Recovery and Deployment environments. Because it's just used for Deploying and Recovering
Windows without DWM will Fallback to Windows basic which is Windows 7's theme
When I had a windows 7 and I lost it, I haved windows license that expired and I still can access it but now is broken
I have a question, are there any ways to continue using these beta builds even they expired?
perhaps set the calender before build time bomb might worked?. CMIIW
@@NandelsWoking well this is very incovenient though
@@trandinhvietdung9357 it’s the standard for hobbyist use of beta systems. You basically just have to do it.
@@NandelsWoking Which doesn't work for 9x, as it destroys the OS permanently once the timebomb is reached. Also, there is an utility for Windows XP and Longhorn called TweakNT, which allows you to change Windows SKU and to add/remove timebombs.
tweaknt
when i see this channel i automaticly get exited bc idk it has good content
1:05 i got this error once and had to reinstall the os with the correct bios date because VirtualBox changed the date back to my computer’s date
Oh. Now i got why on some videos about windows betas writed if you download it then change date to (and here writed date)
Windows 10 beta: Oh the beta expired! Screw your computer, I don't want to boot!
Windows Product Activation Timebomb error included in Windows XP Client and Server Betas.
Wow I was a people who install Windows Vista pre rc1 in VMWare Workstation 15 without changed timebomb, and it said like 1:24. I was spend 2 hours of fixing and activated, but it failed. And I deleted the VM
Note : Sorry for bad English :D
win11 beta builds: kindly asks user to update
windows beta builds before win11: no you can't use it gtfo lol
Windows 9X: Ask your vendor and i will boot again
Windows XP: BYE BYE I'M GONE FOREVER
Windows Vista builds: Sorry i will log you out bye
Windows 7/10: You have limited features and you're stuck with a black background
Windows 11:
Hey bro update your computer bye ✌️
Windows 9x is actually more like: Byebye * destroys itself and leaves the PC unusable *
Awesome, i didn't know about that.
9x after expiring: Sorry, this build expired! System will now be bricked...
Windows Whistler - Longhorn after expiring: So you have chosen death.
Vista mid to later builds after expiring: *ACTIVATE, NOW.*
Windows 7 - 8 after expiring: You can keep using me, but you're I'll have to log off every two hours, you're stuck with a solid black background, and you can't customize.
Windows 10 after expiring: You're forbidden from booting.
Windows 11 after expiring: You can keep using me, but if you could update that'd be nice. No pressure though bro, just saying maybe you should update.
The 11 betas that don't do anything stupid to your system after expiring: Perhaps I was too harsh on you.
Hey Nobel Tech, what Virtual machine program are you using?
Do you What happens when Windows Server betas expire?
I like windows 11, not forcing to upgrade
2:02 I’ve seen that before on Windows TP build 9841 on real hardware.
With the xp era, the sethc.exe bug is an option

Windows Betas expired if you try to install Beta BSOD will appear A compennent of Windows has expired
Windows 7 build 6801 has expiry too but still usable (kinda)
Note ; The expired day of Windows Beta version called Timebomb
What about Windows 2000? Is Windows 2000 activation period expires?
R4 card timebombs be like: *Windows 95, 98 and ME*
this versions betas it's very nostalgic .
I used a beta of Windows 11 and it always failed to update. I had that screen for ~more than a year
R4 timebombs be like: *Windows 95, 98, ME*
It went from the entire system not working in windows 10 to just a pop up in windows 11 lol
Ngl the windows 10 one is evil cuz if you'd have that build you'd have a pain in the ass
Thank you so much.
This video helped me:
I have Windows 11 Insider installed now i know what to do.
Thank you.
will the windows 11 build 22000.282 ever expire?
(it's activated)
Nope. It has no timebomb.
@@hmwndp epic, that means i can use it forever! wooooo
@@frizky._ Until year 30828...
@@hmwndp omg thats very short time!!!!!!!!!!1!1!!!11!!!1!!!1!!1111
Any build released to the public will not have any time bomb on it.
So... It kills itself?
wow now my desktop gave the famous BSOD I restarted and it gave a problem to start what do I do since it does not turn on?
what happens to win8 betas below 8102?
I’m stuck on windows 8 build 9600 forever because of the internet
wait....so if windows 98 expires then you would no longer be able to boot dos?
thats harsh
Windows NT 5.0 be like: I’m fine.
On the xp days, it will just bsod your pc.
Marten can you show windows licence expired on windows 10 build 9907
what about windows 8 build 7850? what happens when the timebomb date is reached on that?
Nothing happens. yes it deactivates Windows, Prevents you from customizing it. But it won't Destruct the Entire System unlike on Win95, Winxp to Longhorn betas and Win10 TP Betas
I did not know betas exist
I dont have a beta version of thesr fools i have the full cause i dont have a product key
1:34 my grandma forgot to upgrade to windows 11
its funny to see how windows deleted winload.exe from system32 instead of warning the user and locking them out of their pc in windows 10 betas
It's not like these builds are even meant to be used for personal use, nor was it ever even released to the public officially.
@@placeholdernm why are you even replying to a 6 month old comment
@@daveplaysgames4411 Because.
It is including in Windows 2000.
W7 6801 timebomb?
Install a new build of Windows NOW!!!
Windows 9x betas don't even boot
And Windows 10 Betas doesn't boot too

They just delete your Windows by BSoDs
Windows NT 5.0:Nothing happen
2:10 what this inside preview expires in 2022
Do insider betas count?
0:09 Solo esta en win 98 windows me
It is also in Windows 95 as well; I've just done a video where I made one expire
yah they made this only for marketing... buying more licenses to get rich
My windows 8 build is 9600 but i still use it
Ummm but windows Longhorn is windows vista beta so.....

So essentially, windows 10 just craps itself. Nice.
wooow! very nice!❤❤❤
What others say?
Wow,WIN XP JUST STOP WINLOGON WITH IT SELF :O
Windows XP just kills Winlogon.exe!?
ME OR MILLENNIUM EDITION
Oh No :(
my windows 7 computer has expired but it still lets me use it
But it doesn't allow you to personalize it if you force it the wallpaper you just put it after 1 - 2 hours (Maybe) it put black wallpaper again
oh nogues
What day dose windows betas expire ?
It depends on the build.
Usually it happens 180 days after it was compiled/released or after installation.
