   I want to test 3.5 on a small multisite, subfolder based, running on IIS7, PHP 5.4, fast-cgi and Wincache.

   I have this XML element in my web.config:

   <rule name="WordPress Rule 2" stopProcessing="true">
       <match url="^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?files/(.+)" ignoreCase="false" />
       <action type="Rewrite" url="wp-includes/ms-files.php?file={R:2}" appendQueryString="false" />
   </rule>

   I also have a 'wp-content/blogs.dir' with a few numbered subfolders.

   When upgrading to WP 3.5 alpha soon, I understand that the "ms-files" rewriting stuff will be kept enabled. So how fo I do to disable it?

   You wont' have these lines if you have a new install. Old installs still uses ms-files.

   if ( is_multisite() && get_site_option( 'ms_files_rewriting' ) ) {
        $web_config_file .= '
             <rule name="WordPress Rule for Files" stopProcessing="true">
                  <match url="^files/(.+)" ignoreCase="false" />
                  <action type="Rewrite" url="wp-includes/ms-files.php?file={R:1}" appendQueryString="false" />
        </rule>';
   }

   So, you can handle this with the site option ms_files_rewriting.

   Of course, you also might still need the rules to handle old URLs. It is not currently "easy" to disable ms-files.php, in that case. WordPress 3.5 is mostly just a clean break from the older MU-era functionality.

   1. Set option ms_files_rewriting to false
   2. Check and correct all attachment URLs

   According to this IRC log lead developer MarkJaquith will make a plugin, or at least a blog post on the subject. Looking forward to it/that!
