Windows 9 Builds 9835 and 9836 Spotted Online

Microsoft continues work on Windows 9, and it appears that some new testing builds have recently been compiled and sent to partners for testing purposes.

While the screenshots that leaked yesterday show that build number 9834 has recently been released to a number of Microsoft partner, now log information also reveals that new ISOs are ready to be shipped. Windows 9 builds 9835 and 9836 have both been spotted online, and although it’s unclear whether they bring anything new as compared to the version we saw in the leaked screenshots, it’s another sign that Microsoft is working at a really fast pace to bring the new operating system to the market as quickly as possible.

At the same time, it could also be an indication that before the preview flavor of Windows 9 hits the market later this month, more testing builds might be released, so some of the features that are part of the leaked builds might be updated before we get our hands on them. Windows 9 is projected to get its very first preview version later this month, while the stable build should see daylight in early 2015, most likely in April. The company is expected to share more information on this new project during a press conference on September 30, before eventually starting shipping the testing bits to users.
