The speech here is first of the alarm app and second set something, so I can use it?

And will those in the final Windows 8 version also be missing? If not, why were not in the CP? Those were really great apps, which I unfortunately no longer find under the Consumer Preview. Or are they there and I have to test briefly the enjoyment Windows 8 Developer Preview.

Thank you for your detailed test. Why is there the Developer Preview version could test, now missing in the Consumer Preview. I just noticed that the apps I removed at that time at all?

The only problem was that I tried to destroy another with the boot manager. Then I was able to boot with Windows XP, but then just had to reinstall the Bootus Boot Manager. Partition had to start with the Developer Preview, where at one time Windows 7 ran on all partitions CHDISK. So when installing Windows 8 on my I did not have such problems then.

I usually boot several operating systems from installed to a free partition of my hard drive. Because Windows XP was also the first partition, Windows XP was included in the boot manager. This finally led to Windows 8 overwriting all MBRs of my hard drives. And that's what I did, including Windows XP and Windows 7.

The solution I use at the moment is only provisional, so it was on the same partition.
