I need to know how it is possible to allow the customer to see their site before DNS resolves on a shared ip. I have it set up on my 6.0 unix box, but haven't found anything about it for 6.5 Windows.

Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service. If you'd like to be part of the discovery process and share your experiences, we invite you to complete this short screening survey. If your responses match the persona we are looking for, you'll receive a link to schedule a call at your convenience. We look forward to hearing from you!

The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release. -
The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

If you go into IP Aliasing, select the IP that the customer is on and click the number at the end of it below where it says "h" it will take you to a list of websites being hosted on that IP Address. Select the one you are looking for and set it as default. Now, when someone goes to that IP they will see that customers site.

When you create a new domain in Plesk, Plesk creates a virtual directory in IIS. For example, say the domain you are creating is called "domain.com", it will simply be accessible at the following URL :
http://xx.xx.xx.xx/domain.com_non_ssl/
You can replace "xx.xx.xx.xx" with the IP you assigned to the domain when you created it in Plesk.
This allows you to access the website content, even if "domain.com" does not resolve to it.

Now, if I could just get these issues fixed so I could think I would have realized that. 
It is good to know though as we provide site design services also.

We simply advice our customers to add
aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd domain.com
aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd www.domain.com
lines with notepad to their hosts file (C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts) who wanted to see his website before domain propogates.

Adding DNS Servers is a good idea, but if they are not the top DNS Servers than what is returned from the first ones will be used by Windows, not the lower ones.
Utilizing the IP default is probably one of the easiest option as long as the customer has actually issued a DNS request so you can change it back in a day.

is there a way to make it so that it just reslolves to http://XXX.XX.XXX.XXX/domain.com
and not
http://XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX/domain.com_non_SSL
Can I edit some config file to make it do this. Most customers wouldn't understand this or easily forget to add the rest. could i just manualy create a virtual dir to their home folder if the config file idea didnt work.

http://XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX/domain.com_non_SSL

This is windows, there are no config files.
This is the easiest way since it uses virtual domains in IIS and not real domains with host-headers. Besides, the propogation window for dns is only 24-48hrs.

and also how would this work with FTP?
can i make it so that their domain a subdomain. I know i can. but would have to do this manually through IIS. But a way when i create a domain it puts http://Domain.Filebreeze.com Automaticly so my users really wouldnt have to mess with DNS if they didnt want to. they would have instant access to their account after setup. can plesk make this happen in this way? Or is it just not possible unless i manually do it.
