Vista / Vista’s SKUs
Vista vs. XP
What is Vista?
Windows Vista is the next version of Microsoft Windows
operating system, superseding Windows XP. It was
previously known by its codename Longhorn, after the
Longhorn Saloon, a popular bar in Whistler, British
Columbia (see the other Microsoft codenames). The name
"Vista" was unveiled on July 22, 2005. According to
sources, the scheduled release date for Windows Vista is
currently November, 2006. That release date is only
scheduled for PC vendors so that systems will be made
Vista-ready before Christmas. The general public
availability is projected to be January 2007, five years
after the release of Windows XP, making this the longest
time span between releases of desktop versions of
Microsoft's Windows operating system.

Windows Vista has many new features such as
an updated graphical user interface called
Aero, improved searching technology, a
number of new security features, and
completely new networking, audio, print, and
display engines. Vista also aims to increase the
level of communication between machines on
a home network using Peer-to-peer
technology, making it easy to share files,
password settings, and digital media between
computers and devices. Windows Vista also
has an entirely new development API, called
WinFX, based on the .NET framework, which
aims to make it significantly easier for
developers to write high-quality applications
than with WinFX's predecessor, Win32.
Windows Vista will carry the version number

6.0 (Windows 2000, Windows XP and Windows
Server 2003 being Windows NT versions 5.0,
5.1 and 5.2, respectively).

XP – Vista Differences
Vista vs. XP - This time it’s
performance!

Platform Improvements
Windows Vista's authentication capabilities are more flexible, providing a variety of
choices for customized authentication mechanisms such as fingerprint scanners
and smart cards.
Deployment and management tools, such as self-service personal identification
number (PIN) reset tools, make smart cards easier to manage and deploy. Smart
cards can now be used to log on to Windows Vista, too.
Windows Vista enables authentication using Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) or Web
services.
Certificate enrollment is made easier because Windows Vista includes Credential
Manager enhancements that enable backing up and restoring credentials stored
on the local computer. The new Digital Identity Management Service (DIMS)
provides certificate and credential roaming within an Active Directory forest and
end-to-end certificate life cycle management scenarios.
Windows Vista's auditing capabilities make it easier to track what users do. Auditing
categories now include multiple subcategories, reducing the number of irrelevant
events. Windows Vista integrated audit event forwarding collects and forwards
critical audit data to a central location, enabling enterprises to better organize
and analyze audit data.

Usability and End-User Productivity
User productivity is still one of the key considerations for IT

departments evaluating a new operating system.
Windows Vista seeks to add value to enterprises by
substantially improving user productivity. Improvements to
the user interface help both end users and skilled IT
professionals become more productive.
Microsoft has improved the usability of almost every aspect of
Windows Vista, including the Start Menu, Windows Explorer,
and Control Panel.
For example, the Control Panel now lists specific tasks that the
user may want to perform, such as changing the screen's
resolution.

Improved Start Menu:
Desktop Search / Quick Search
The new Start Menu is faster, more streamlined, and more helpful.
The Start Menu now makes it easy to navigate across all installed applications by
eliminating the slow performing, cascading "All Programs" view.
All Programs view has been replaced with a Tree view, similar to Windows Explorer,
which allows users to find applications nested in folders several levels deep.
The Start Menu features a powerful, integrated desktop search through a new
feature called Quick Search. Just type in a word, name, or phrase into the
embedded Quick Search box, and Quick Search can find the right file.
Quick Search is available in any Explorer window, allowing easy access. Users can
use the Quick Search text box to search for applications on the Start menu or for
specific Control Panel tasks.
Windows Vista enables users to add or edit file properties or data associated with a
file to make it easier to find in the future.

Search
Users can search documents, e-mail, contacts,

and Web sites right from their desktop.
Windows Vista searches are not limited to the
local computer and can include shared folders
and other network resources.

Sharing
Windows Vista makes it easy for users to share files,
whether on a single computer or network.
Users have the option to save their files into a personal or
public profile, thereby differentiating whether the
content will be available for personal or public use.
The new Sharing Wizard shows every person who has an
account on that computer or in the Active Directory,
enabling the user to choose which individual can
access which files.
Users can more easily keep track of shared content by
showing two Search Folders: one that displays all
shared content and one that displays all content that
has been taken offline.

Vista Explorer
The new Vista Explorer has upgraded icons, toolbars, navigation structure,
and file information.
Windows XP included several specialized Explorers to enhance users'
experience when interacting with specific types of content, such as
Documents, Photos, and Music. Windows Vista builds on this concept
by including layout, command, and organizational tools that are
appropriate for the information the Explorer displays onscreen.
Meta Data can be used by the query engine for more effective searches.
Keywords can be automatically or manually entered to increase the benefit
of Virtual Folders. Users can also add or amend values for Keyword or
Author fields by right-clicking the file in the new Explorer's interface.
A star rating system (one to five) can be used to quickly search for favorite
documents.
By clicking on one of the files in Vista Explorer, extra information and visual
clues now appear, including a thumbnail of the file.
Indexing has become more efficient using sub-menus, which have more
context.

Information Visualization: Document
Explorer
Windows Vista has amazing information management capabilities that
enable users to find documents, e-mail messages, and other
information in seconds and then to work with that data in ways that
are most intuitive to them. In fact, Windows Vista's new tools are
so flexible and so easy to use that users will rarely need to search
for information on their computers.
New Document Explorer, replacing the My Documents folder in
Windows XP, is much more powerful. Instead of simply showing
icons for documents, the Explorer shows high-resolution thumbnails
that preview the document's content.
The new Live Icon feature enables users to see what files contain
without opening them.
Users can dynamically adjust the size of thumbnails up to 256x256
pixels, which is large enough for users to know whether they've
found the right document without opening it.

Search Folders
Windows Vista introduces Search Folders, a powerful new

tool that makes it easy to find and organize files—
wherever they may be on the PC.
A Search Folder is simply a search that users save.
Opening a Search Folder instantly runs that saved
search, displaying up-to-date results immediately.
Search Folders can be found in the navigation pane, as
well as traditional folders users have created.

Virtual Folders
Windows Vista introduces a new type of folder called a virtual folder.
The contents can be based on combinations of document authors,
ratings, keywords (which users can define), and other criteria.
Virtual folders behave like regular folders; however, the contents of a
virtual folder are defined dynamically. Queries refresh the XML
contents as new documents match the criteria.
Virtual Folders are part directory and part the result of a file query
(Search).
Users can build on Windows Search by storing results in an XML Virtual
Folder.
Like any other folder, users can re-organize and filter the virtual
folder's contents to quickly find the document they are looking for.
Some Virtual Folders exist already, such as All Documents (formerly My
Documents, a yellow folder) and All Music.

Command Bars
Command Bars display only the tasks that are most

appropriate for the files being displayed.
Live Icons (scalable thumbnails) used throughout Windows
Vista allow users to see the first page of documents,
the actual image of a photo, or the album art for
individual songs in users’ music collection, making it
easier to find exactly what they are looking for.

Live Taskbar Thumbnails
Live thumbnails of a window appear when users

rest the mouse pointer over a taskbar item,
showing the content of that window.
The live thumbnail is displayed whether the
window is minimized or not, and whether the
content of the window is a document, photo,
or even a running video or process.

Improved Security
New security features are designed to make Windows Vista-based PCs more secure
and online experiences safer.
Microsoft has been able to increase the security of Windows XP significantly since
its initial release by providing updates such as Service Pack 2, but major
security improvements require significant architectural changes that can only
be made by releasing a new operating system release.
Efforts include using a security development lifecycle to develop more secure
software and providing technology innovation in the platform to provide
layered defense, or defense-in-depth.
Security alerts enable users to quickly resolve potentially damaging issues that can
harm the PC.
Automatic Updates and Windows Security Center help update PCs with the latest
security patches, and also alert users when their PC needs to install an update.
Windows Vista firewall helps protect users from hackers, viruses, worms, spyware,
malware, and other potentially unwanted software.
Windows Vista provides the reputation of downloads.

User Account Control (UAC)
UAC is an improved system for encouraging users to use minimum

privileges to secure Vista from rogue programs.
With Windows XP and earlier operating systems, IT departments had to
choose between the application compatibility and convenience of
having users log on as an administrator, and the security and
stability provided by having users log on as a standard user.
UAC in Windows Vista gives administrators the option of restricting
permissions while still enabling most applications to run. It allows
users to run applications as an ordinary user with the ability to
elevate rights and install a new program by supplying
administrative credentials through a simple dialog box.
Registry Change to UAC allows users to switch the token by pressing
OK, rather than typing a complex password.
UAC gives users access to certain networks based on who they are.

Firewall and Windows Service Hardening
Personal firewall built into Windows Vista builds on the functionality
included with Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 2.
Windows Vista's firewall blocks all inbound traffic until a computer has the
latest security updates installed.
Two-way firewall includes outbound filtering that enables users to configure
it to selectively block both outbound traffic and inbound traffic.
Every aspect of Windows Vista's firewall can be configured using Group
Policy settings, so client security settings remain constant.
For the first time in a Windows operating system, Windows Vista firewall
management is integrated with IPsec.
Firewall works closely with Windows Service Hardening to restrict what
services can do on the system, providing defense-in-depth and reducing
opportunities for attackers to compromise vulnerable computers.
Windows Service Hardening restricts critical Windows services from
doing abnormal activities in the file system, registry, network, or any
other resources that could be used to allow malware to install itself or
attack other computers. For example, the Remote Procedure Call (RPC)
service can be restricted from replacing system files or modifying the
registry.

Anti-Malware
User Account Control and security improvements to Internet Explorer
(including the new Protected mode) can reduce the impact of
malware infections in Windows Vista.
Windows Vista can detect and clean many malware applications,
thereby protecting the integrity of the operating system and the
privacy of users' data.
Windows Vista can perform real-time blocking of malware. Note the
built-in anti-malware detection, cleaning, and real-time blocking is
primarily targeted at individual user.
Current plans do not include enterprise management level support for
anti-malware via group policy beyond enabling and disabling the
protection.

Windows Sidebar
Windows Sidebar boosts personal productivity by

providing instant access to gadgets like
picture slideshows, Windows Media Player
controls, or news headlines.
Users pick the gadgets they want to see in
Windows Sidebar.

Windows Gadgets
Gadgets are mini-applications with a wide variety of

possible uses.
Gadgets can connect to Web services to deliver weather
information, news updates, traffic maps, Internet radio
streams, and slideshows of online photo albums.
Gadgets can also integrate with applications to
streamline interaction with them.
Windows Vista comes with an essential set of gadgets,
and users will be able to download more gadgets from
an online gadget gallery.

Task Dialog
Task Dialog replaces the Error Message box.

Task Dialog includes troubleshooters and links to
help cure the problem.
Task Dialog includes a new generation of built-in
diagnostics, such as help connecting to a
network or warning of impending disk failure.

Improved Event Logs
Improved event logs gather more information for

any given event.
These logs increase the chances of
understanding the problem and thereby
finding a solution.

ClickOnce
ClickOnce combines with UAC, certificates, and
BITS to provide a quick, simple, and secure
installation experience over the Internet.

Windows Flip and
Windows Flip 3D
Windows Vista provides two entirely new features to manage
windows: Windows Flip and Windows Flip 3D.
Flip allows users to flip through open windows (by using
Alt+Tab), providing a live thumbnail of each window, rather
than just a generic icon and file name. Live thumbnails
make it easier to quickly identify the window users want,
particularly when multiple windows of the same kind are
open.
Flip 3D allows users to work with the scroll wheel on their
mouse to flip through open windows in a stack, and quickly
locate and select the one they want to work with. This
feature is even handier with the new Flip 3D key that
manufacturers are adding to many keyboards.

Fundamentals:
Enhanced Application Quality
Windows Vista introduces enhancements to error handling, document
recovery, and application-restart mechanisms so that application
stability is enhanced and end-user data is better protected.
In particular, the Restart Manager enables applications such as custom
installers or management tools to modify the system without disrupting
the user experience.
Windows Vista introduces new feedback-reporting APIs that enable
developers to create event types and specify data they need to
continuously improve the quality of their products. Coupled with
integration into a new Developer Portal that enables developers to
participate in its program of aggregating user feedback, these
feedback-reporting APIs make it simpler than ever for developers to get
feedback and improve their applications. New instrumentation APIs for
application eventing and performance monitoring will allow developers
to create the most reliable applications ever.

Fundamentals:
Security Advances
Windows Vista introduces an improved security model that

reduces a system's vulnerability to attack while still
empowering applications.
In particular, it makes the new User Account Control (UAC) the
default user account and provides an easy-to-use
temporary-privilege elevation model. As a result, malware
installations are reduced and more OS functionality is made
safely available to non-administrators.
Security is further strengthened with a trust-based validation
system through Mandatory Integrity Control, and Windows
Resource Protection (the follow-on to Windows File
Protection) guarantees a stable, read-only view of a running
operating system.

Fundamentals:
Improved Installation
Windows Vista enables developers to provide their
customers with much better installation and update
experiences through both the traditional Windows
Install (MSI) and ClickOnce.
By respecting the new security models, a developer can
allow users to install from an account with User
Account Control (UAC) and regulate any specific needs
to elevate privilege.
The Restart Manager—transparently provided by Microsoft
installers—minimizes the need for system reboots.

Performance Improvements
Windows Vista offers improved performance and
responsiveness compared with Windows XP.
For example, Windows Vista can automatically detect problems
related to long startup times or an unresponsive user
interface, and add an event to the event log that describes
the condition and that possibly provides information about
the root cause of the performance problem.
Administrators can use this information to troubleshoot
problems on a case-by-case basis, or aggregate the event
log data by using a tool such as Microsoft Operations
Manager (MOM) to analyze performance for the entire
enterprise.

Reliability and Performance
While Windows Vista takes advantage of modern
computing hardware, it also runs faster and more
reliably on the same computers used to run Windows
XP.
The operating system is more dependable, and Restart
Manager reduces the number of times users need to
restart their computers.
Applications that run on Windows Vista are more reliable
too, because applications can recover from deadlocked
situations and improved error reporting enables
developers to fix common problems.
Windows Vista can help detect and recover failing hard
disks and memory.

Performance: Sleep
Windows Vista introduces a new default power-
off state called Sleep.
New Sleep state combines the resume speed of
Windows XP Standby mode with the data
protection features and low power
consumption characteristics of Hibernate.
Resuming use when the PC is in Sleep state
takes just 2-3 seconds.
Shutting down and restarting the computer is
less frequent by using the new Sleep state, a
simple one-click on and off experience that
not only reduces power consumption, but also
helps protect data.

Performance:
Sleep on Desktop PCs
Sleep works in a different way on Windows Vista-based desktops than it
does on Windows Vista-based laptops.
When users turn off a Windows Vista-based desktop, all the documents,
applications, and data that are currently in use are saved in two places.
First, they are saved to the memory, or RAM, where they are quickly
accessible (in Windows XP this was called Standby).
Simultaneously, the information is saved to the computer's hard disk (in
Windows XP this was called Hibernate).
In Sleep, Windows Vista uses the data saved to memory to help users
restart faster after extended periods of non-use. Simply move the
mouse or press any key on the keyboard, and the computer starts up
within seconds.
The Sleep state uses the data saved to the hard disk to protect it in case of
power loss. When users resume the use of their desktop after a power
failure, Windows Vista will quickly restart from Sleep using the data
saved to disk, with all of the data and applications intact.

Performance:
Sleep on Laptop PCs
On laptop PCs, users can enter the Sleep state by

pressing the Power button or closing the
laptop lid. Data is saved to memory, letting
users resume use faster.
As battery power winds down, Windows Vista
quickly transitions the data to disk to help
keep data safe.

Performance: SuperFetch
SuperFetch, a new feature in Windows Vista, allows applications

and files to load much faster than on Windows XP-based
computers.
SuperFetch understands which applications users use most and
preloads these applications into memory, so the system is
more responsive after first boot or when switched to a
different user profile.
SuperFetch uses an intelligent prioritization scheme that
understands which applications users use most often, and it
can differentiate which applications users are likely to use at
different times (for example, on the weekend versus during
the week).
SuperFetch can also prioritize applications over background
tasks, so that when users return to their machine after
leaving it idle, it's still responsive.

Performance:
External Memory Devices (EMD)
EMD technology helps boost performance without adding RAM.

Windows Vista introduces a new concept in adding memory to a system.
USB flash drives can be used as External Memory Devices (EMDs) to
extend system memory and improve performance without opening the
box. When combined with SuperFetch technology, this can help drive
impressive improvement in system responsiveness.
EMD technology is both reliable and secure. Users can remove an EMD at
any time without any loss of data or negative impact to the system.
However, if users remove the EMD, performance returns to the level
experienced without the device.
Wear on the USB drive is not an issue when using it as an EMD. A unique
algorithm optimizes wear patterns, so that a USB device can run as an
EMD for many years, even when heavily used.
Data on the EMD is encrypted to help prevent inappropriate access to data
when the device is removed.

Performance:
Hybrid Hard Drive
Windows Vista also takes advantage of Hybrid Hard Drive technology to
help improve battery life, performance, and reliability.
A Hybrid Hard Drive is a new type of hard drive with an integrated non-
volatile flash memory buffer.
If the machine is equipped with a Hybrid Hard Drive, Windows Vista takes
advantage of this hardware to boot, hibernate, and resume use more
quickly.
The hybrid drive is intended for mobile PCs running Windows Vista. Data is
written to the flash memory, which saves work for the mechanical hard
drive—saving battery power.
The hybrid drive helps Windows Vista resume use faster from Sleep
because data can be restored from flash memory faster than from the
mechanical hard drive.
Since the mechanical hard drive is not working in Sleep state with the
Hybrid Hard Drive, users have less risk of hardware problems with the
hard drive when they’re on the move.

How to Install
Windows Deployment Installation Disc
Services (WDS)
WDS (Windows Deployment Services) is the next generation The second option for installation is via the
of Windows 200x's RIS (Remote Installation Service). The Windows Vista Setup Disk.
Key new feature of WDS is that it supports Windows Imaging
format (WIM).
To recap, the idea behind WDS and RIS is that you start with
a new machine with no operating system. When you boot
this machine, at the BIOS / POST screen its PXE network card
finds the DHCP server, from there it contacts the WDS (RIS)
server and downloads Vista (XP).

• The following requirements must be met in all scenarios in order for the user to install. The
following checks will be performed before setup begins.
• User must be on valid operating system to install.
– For down-level install, user must be running Windows 2000 SP4 or higher.
– Otherwise, user must boot from media and perform clean install.
• Ensure that all RunOnce items have completed before starting setup.
– Setup will block if it detects any items in this` registry key.
• HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce

Down-level OS (upgrade) (cont.)
After setup has started …
• Ensure that user does not install to same partition
as existing down-level OS.

Dual Boot Setup Checks
Pre-setup
• Dual boot scenarios
• If setup detects a newer version of the loader already on target system, block install.
After setup has started…
• Disk configuration
– Sufficient space must be available for setup to install.
• Message for temporary working space for setup to use
• Message for space for setup to install Vista image

Setup Options
Setup uses Setup.exe not winnt32.exe
Setup command line switches: (Other switches are available but we will cover the most useful ones for the consumer user here.)
•
/checkupgradeonly
Checks your computer for upgrade compatibility.
–
•
/cmd:command_line
Instructs setup to carry out a specific command during the final phase of setup.
–
•
/dudisable
Prevents Dynamic Update from running
–
•
/noreboot
Instructs setup to not restart the computer after the down-level phase of setup is completed so that you can execute other commands.
–
•
/tempdrive:drive_letter
affects the placement of temporary files only
–

Setup Files and Directories
Setup has two sets of files to place during installation:
• $Windows.~bt – the files needed to boot the system (NT boot files, WinPE, setup
files)
– The ~bt folder will be copied to the bootable active partition on the system. The boot
partition requires a minimum amount of HD space to support installation (today 200 MB).
If there is not enough space for the ~bt folder, setup will fail and inform the user with an
error (“Not enough disk space on your boot drive. Free drive space and try again.”).

Setup Files and Directories (cont.)
• $Windows.~ls – the installation sources (install.wim)

– The ~ls folder will be copied to the partition specified in the
tempdrive command line argument. If the specified drive does
not meet the space requirements, setup will fail and inform the
user with an error (“Not enough disk space on your specified
temporary drive. Free drive space and try again.”).

Vista Setup flow High Level
Overview

Data Migration
Data Migration Matrix for Vista

Migration support

Data Migration Store (During Setup)
~Q directory store
•
During the upgrade process, the data marked for being moved is stored in the $Windows.~Q directory
•
It is possible that all settings aren’t transferred properly If that’s the case, you can look for the existence of
a ~Q directory on the root of the installation drive and possibly recover data
NOTE: User profiles are stored here

•
$Windows.~Q\Data\Users\<username>

$Windows.~Q data recovery
As mentioned in the previous section on upgrade installations, there are
cases where user settings and data might not be properly migrated.
During the upgrade installation process, user documents and settings are
moved to the $Windows.~Q directory for preparation for injection into the
install.wim.
If this fails for any reason, you may still see a $Windows.~Q directory on
the root of the installation drive or in the root of the users profile directory.
This $Windows.~Q directory should encapsulate the documents and

settings that the user is missing.
You can copy and paste these settings into the proper directories post
installation to recover user data.
It is not recommended to perform an in place upgrade of Vista as the

$Windows.~Q directory is the default placeholder for user data and this
directory may be deleted during an in place upgrade.

DWM & Graphics

DWM (Desktop Windows Manager)
Desktop Window Manager (DWM)
What is DWM?
DWM takes desktop windows and renders them off screen, then composites them together and
allows effects to be applied and present a higher quality desktop. The rendering occurs in Direct3D
and the rendering is actually happening in hardware using the Pixel Shaders on the video card
Since windows are rendered off screen instead of being directly drawn to the desktop, they don’t
have to worry about windows that may be behind them when dragging them around
Rendering the windows off screen allows for things like live dynamic thumbnails, examples of
which you will see when hovering over the program in the taskbar or doing (ALT + TAB).
DWM also enables a cool feature call Flip3D that allows you view your open windows in a 3d Space
and cycle through them backwards and forwards as if you were operating a rolodex. (Windows flag
key + Tab and directional arrow to scroll screens)
DWM uses the Windows Presentation Foundation (Avalon) and requires a modern video card with a
driver based on a the Windows Driver Display Model
DWM enables the Aero Glass theme (CTRL + SHIFT+ F9), which is what provides the translucent
window functionality
Also provides Window animations during minimize maximize process
DWM also enables Window scaling so that users with High DPI displays no longer have the problem
of very small and hard to see windows. Windows can now be scaled to a normal size without
distortion which was not something that was possible in Windows XP.

Windows Flip and Windows Flip 3D
Windows Vista provides two entirely new features to manage windows:

Windows Flip and Windows Flip 3D.
Flip allows you to flip through open windows (by using Alt+Tab), providing
a live thumbnail of each window, rather than just a generic icon and file
name. Live thumbnails make it easier to quickly identify the window you
want, particularly when multiple windows of the same kind are open.
Flip 3D allows you to use the scroll wheel on your mouse to flip through
open windows in a stack, and quickly locate and select the one you want
to work with. This feature is even handier when you use it with the new
Flip 3D key that manufacturers are adding to many keyboards.

Aero – Aero Glass

Windows Vista desktop experiences
Windows Vista will offer different desktop experiences based on
the available graphics hardware in the system
• Aero Glass experience: Delivers the full-fidelity Longhorn

user experience on the desktop, including support for 3D
graphics and animation.
• Aero experience: Delivers the minimum hardware

acceleration and desktop composition for the Longhorn user
experience.
• Classic experience: Equivalent to Windows 2000

capabilities, using software rendering.

Aero and Hardware Acceleration
The Aero experiences require a display adapter that supports
hardware rendering
Only the Aero Glass experience requires drivers that uses the
LDDM.
Aero only requires XDDM drivers (XP Driver Display Model)

LDDM and hardware acceleration
Hardware acceleration using LDDM drivers is based completely on the Direct3D pipeline
Advances are delivered in the following areas
• Text: Sub-pixel ClearType™ anti-aliasing
• 2D graphics: Hardware accelerated, resolution independent anti-aliased graphics
• 3D graphics: A higher level API, integrated with 2D API and controls infrastructure
• Video: Glitch-free playback
• Color pipeline: Greater than 8 bits per component
• Desktop Compositor: All graphical elements can be arbitrarily combined within applications and across the
desktop
• High DPI scaling: Support for higher pixel density for both LCD and CRT displays

Mobile Products
Mobile PCs
• Toshiba Tecra M3, M4 and M5
• Toshiba Portégé M400
Mobile PCs that don’t meet the benchmark but
glass works
• Toshiba Portégé M200
• HP nx6124
• HP nc6000

Protected Mode
Secure and Trustworthy Browsing
Explicit user consent will be required the first

time an ActiveX control is run on the machine
• Except for a prepopulated allow list
• This protects the user from preinstalled controls being
arbitrarily and maliciously used by Internet content
• User can also run in Add-ons Disabled Mode for recovery

Protected Mode
Protected Mode restricts IE from writing files
outside of the Temporary Internet Files (TIF)
folder
• IE’s process has fewer write privileges than normal
User access privileges
• Protected Mode builds on the Windows Vista
Mandatory Integrity Control (MIC), which restricts
writes to higher integrity folders
• This means Protected Mode is Vista only
When IE does need to write outside of the TIF
folder (e.g. File…Save As), a broker process with
appropriate privileges is called
A compatibility layer allows add-ons to similarly
elevate privilege

Web Feeds (RSS) Platform
Automatic Delivery Of Personalized Information
Browsers Readers Apps Websites
IE 7 Supports Web Feeds (RSS) in Three Ways
1. Enables discovery, viewing & subscribing as you browse
2. Provides common feed list and a common feed store to enable

new class of applications to easily support RSS
3. Enable new scenarios via Simple List Extensions, giving web

feeds the power to do more with lists than ever before

User Account Control
Agenda
LUA == UAP == UAC

Why User Account Control (UAC)?
The UAC Approach
UAC technologies in Windows Vista
How this affects your applications today
Writing Vista Logo Compliant Code

Definitions
Standard User
• Default account created by Accounts Wizard
• Prevented from making system-wide changes
Administrator (Protected Admin)

• A member of the Local Administrators group
• An account with unrestricted access to computer/domain
• UAC does not apply to Built-In Admin
Over the Shoulder (OTS)
• A prompt for an Administrator to authorize a task started by
a Standard User

Pain Points
Lost Productivity
• Malware damages the system
• Enterprise users can compromise the corporation
We have to relax security to run Local Intranet applications
• These applications require elevated privileges to run
• System security must be relaxed
• It is costly to do this per-app for every OS
Common OS tasks require elevated privilege
• Simple scenarios like VPN don’t work
• Standard Users are not able to manage their account

Vista UAC Goals
All users default to Standard User (non-Admin)
• Common user tasks work for Standard User
High application compatibility
Admins use full privilege only when needed
• Limit use of privilege
Explicit consent before using elevated privilege
Process isolation of Admin apps and higher risk
applications
Enabling Parental Control Scenarios

Definitions
IDW- Internal Developers Workstation

IDS- Internal Developers Server-
These terms are used as markers to indicate that the build has
reached a certain quality assurance criterion and that it contains
new high-priority fixes that are critical to the next baseline of the
shipping code. The terms IDW/S came from the Windows NT
organization.
LKG- Last Known Good-The term LKG originated in the Visual Studio
term also used as above.
CTP- Community Technology Preview- Term used as above, the code
has reached a point that it is considered safe to release to the
partners or internal testing programs.
Incremental build — An incremental build includes only the code of the
source tree that has changed since the previous build. This is
getting out a daily build to the test team, regardless of
circumstances, this is to perform incremental builds instead of
daily clean builds. This is also the best way to maintain quality
and a known state of a build. As you can guess, the build time
needed for an incremental build is just a fraction of what a clean
build takes.
Definitions Continued…
Clean build—Deleting all obj files, resource files, precompiled headers,
generated import libraries, or other byproducts of the build process.
This is the first part of a clean build definition. The second part of a
clean build definition is rebuilding every component and every piece
of code in a project. Basically the perfect clean build would be
building on a build machine with the operating system and all build
tools freshly installed.
NAP- Network Access Protection (NAP) The idea is to identify and then
to isolate 'unhealthy' computers. NAP links with Group Policy, for
example, you can define 'unhealthy' in terms of clients with
unsuitable DHCP scope. Other NAP protection includes excluding
clients with an 'unhealthy' IPSec policy, VPN or 802.1x validation.
UAP- User Account Protection
LUA- Least-privileged User Accounts - User accounts that let users

exercise general functionality such as running programs, saving and
modifying data, and reading other users’ data when stored in
accessible folders without exposing administrative privileges.
Definitions Continued…
SM- Safe Mode
SRT- Startup Repair Tool
DWM- Microsoft Windows Desktop Window Manager - A Microsoft

Windows graphical user interface component that manages
window policies, behaviors, and visual appearance. This
component was initially deployed as part of the Microsoft
Windows Vista graphical user interface.
WDS- WDS= Windows Deployment Services Team - A Microsoft

business unit responsible for developing technologies that enable
the rapid adoption and deployment of Windows.
PXE- Pre Boot Execution Environment - A component of Intel’s

Wired For Management specification that provides a mechanism
whereby computers can remotely download and execute a boot
image from a server on the network.
