The Windows 8 Developer Preview is a pre-beta version of Windows 8 for developers. These downloads include pre-release software that may change without notice.

It should not be used in a production environment. The features and functionality in the pre- release software may not appear in the final version. Some product features and functionality may require advanced or additional hardware, or installation of other software.
