- Revised the method for enabling the old taskbar by intercepting the code path for initializing the new taskbar, due to a very rare issue where our hook does not get called on certain recent builds. (#2499)
- Fixed crash on 25921+ due to the removal of pnidui.dll. (#2558)
- Fixed potential stability issues when using the new taskbar on 22621.2787+.
Adds 2 new tags in the settings file that define the start and end of a
logical section, in order to enable the possibility of hiding parts of
the UI based on the current value of some setting:
;s Taskbar_Windows10Section IsOldTaskbar <- SECTION BEGIN
;g Taskbar_Windows10Section <- SECTION END
For s, the parameters represent these:
* Taskbar_Windows10Section = name of the current section
* IsOldTaskbar = if the check associated with this name (function call)
returns FALSE, the section will not be displayed on the screen; that
is, the code will skip drawing whatever is inside the 2 tags
This commit includes support for the Windows spotlight feature from
22000.708+ OS builds.
Related to this, ExplorerPatcher now offers the following functionality:
* Hide the "Learn about this picture" icon
* Choose which items from the Windows spotlight icon context menu to
have replicated in the desktop context menu (legacy context menu only)
* Set a schedule for "Switch to next picture"
* Manipulate the feature from the Properties UI, bypassing the desktop
icon
