New features & settings:

Other updates:
- Simplified Taskbar Widget options by hiding "Click to Open Media Flyout" and "Close Flyout on Second Click", and setting them always on. I understand that a lot of users might find the settings overwhelming, and these changes make navigating just a bit less cluttered. by @unchihugo in #556
- Fixed an issue where settings sometimes get reset to default if users shut down the computer before saving fully finishes, leading to corrupt save files. The new system creates backups of previous saves to load from. by @unchihugo in #592
- Fixed incorrect lock states for the Lock Keys flyout if they were pressed rapidly: the indicators should be way more accurate now! by @unchihugo in #604
