0.8.0.0 - Reports of my project's discontinuation are greatly exaggerated

on GitHub

Hey all, sorry I've been away for a while. Work got a new local office and then started a Windows 11 migration so I've been busy with that. The migration is wrapping up so I should have free time to work on this again. I've forgone parts of the UI update that was planned for this release for a later subversion to go ahead and get this out of the door.

0.8.0.0 comes with the following changes:

• Fixes Installer Typos (thanks @ThisAMJ)
• Fixes PDF File Handling
• Improves News Handler
• Fixes Windows Spotlight (thanks @floatchallenged)
• Removes Windows 8.1 Support
• Removes Lemmy Search option (RIP)
• Adds AI-Less Google Results option
• Adds Passthrough for --user-data-dir
• Adds Support for --from-ie-to-edge calls (Nirsoft apps)
• Adds Passthrough for --win-session-start
• Adds Support for bing.com/WS/redirect URLs
• Improves Default Browser Recursion Error message
• Fixes some UWP apps no longer working in Service Mode
• Fixes Quick Settings being inaccessible in Windows 11 24H2
• Updates Donation Link. Donators will no longer receive "item has been shipped" emails
• Removes attempts to open failed to decode https://decodedUrl/ Microsoft Teams URLs
• Added Detections and Disabling for UCPD which may prevent Europe Mode from working
