At some point you will be forced to upgrade. Beta versions will stop working (not sign in), there have been beta updates already and people were forced to upgrade with the notification signing in will not be possible anymore if they don't.

Betas are normally very buggy and 365 was one of the first betas of WLM so you better upgrade as a lot of bugs have been fixed in the final build :)

Yes, in resource hacker, if you change the file details to the lastest build it should sign in perfectly ;). You can do this for any version you want as well.

I liked some of the previous versions too. There should be a feature that lets us change between any 3 of the tested versions...but there isnt..(N)

You guys must be in the minority, because most people, including me, prefer the latest look.
