Microsoft yesterday rolled out Windows Server 2012 R2 Preview, thus providing us with a glimpse into the feature package of the upcoming Windows 8.1 Preview.

As I’ve reported to you a few hours ago, the Start button is of course there, and so are many other changes, including customization settings for the Start screen and dedicated options to boot directly to desktop.

This clip posted on YouTube by bavogames reveals some of the features currently available in Windows Server 2012 R2 and very likely to make their way into Windows 8.1 Preview too.

Of course, full details on the changes included in Windows 8.1 Preview will be provided in just a few hours, as Microsoft is set to present the new operating system during the BUILD developer conference in San Francisco.
