Official Windows 10 Creators Update (Redstone 2) Wallpaper Possibly Revealed

[CrAKeN]

 

Is this the official wallpaper for Redstone 2? It might be.

 

Microsoft is expected to compile the final Windows 10 Creators Update build later this month and to ship it to insiders before retail users get it as well in April, so the builds we’re getting these days are pretty close to RTM.

 

This is why a recent finding makes everyone believe that Microsoft silently introduced the new official wallpaper for the Windows 10 Creators Update, which was included exclusively in the Cloud SKU released with build 15046.

 

Basically, a subdirectory in the Windows folder of Windows 10 Cloud includes a variation of the hero wallpaper that was released with Windows 10 and which is believed to be none other than the official desktop background in Creators Update.

 

As aggiornamentilumia.it notes, users who have already installed Windows 10 Cloud build 15046 can find this new wallpaper in C: > Windows > Web > Wallpaper > Windows, and the file is named img0.

 

Note that this wallpaper only exists in the Cloud build, and if you’re looking at the aforementioned path in Windows 10 Home or Pro builds, you’re only finding the previous hero image released by Microsoft with Windows 10.

 

Most likely, Microsoft will include the wallpaper in the next Windows 10 build as well, and if this is indeed the official version for the Creators Update, it should be configured as default desktop background in the final build rolling out in April.

As a society, are we so desperate for news that a graphic image that means absolutely nothing all of a sudden becomes newsworthy?  Back in 1992, I remember standing in line at the Egghead Software Store on Lombard Ave in San  Francisco waiting to buy Windows 3.1.  That was newsworthy, it was a great change in Windows from 3.0.  That was the last time I ever saw a line to buy any Microsoft software.  Later they  released 3.11 but no lines on release day.  And 8 years later there were still systems running 3.1 because it was stable and did what the user wanted.  When they released 95 no one was in a hurry to upgrade to it, no lines,  and the ones that did upgrade soon took it off their systems and reinstalled Windows 3.1.  Though Microsoft continues to beat themselves on the back and tell everyone how great they are, it would appear that even they are getting hard up to show something great, so that they have to leak wallpaper and try to make a big deal out of it.  The real news would be if they were honest and released the REAL Windows 10 wallpaper seen below.
