Deprecated

The old history format is deprecated. When running 2.0.0 for the first time, the old history will be migrated and you will keep your history. It is not supported to go back to older releases after upgrading, which will result in the history being deleted. Support for migrating to the new format will be removed in a future 3.0.0 release.

Other

  • Electron 9.0.0-beta.15 (was 8.0.1)
  • Chromium 83.0.4102.3 (was 80.0.3987.86)
