Latest build of Windows 8.1 updates icons of new apps

JMH · May 26, 2013

Microsoft is set to release a platform preview of Windows 8.1 in late June, and with that update will come several new bundled apps. In the previous builds of Windows 8.1, the apps had placeholder images for the tiles, but in the latest build, those placeholders have been replaced.

The new icons, seen in the image above, can be seen that will likely be representative, if not the final version, that will ship with the 8.1 update later this year. While certainly not the most exciting news for 8.1, for those of you who have been following the leaks closely, this will begin to complete the puzzle about how the new applications will function.

Windows 8.1 Start button SPOTTED in the wild

Leaked screenshots of a prerelease build of Microsoft's forthcoming Windows 8.1 update reveal that the rumors are true and the Start button really is coming back – though perhaps not in the way users of previous versions of Windows might like.
