Summary

This release focuses on stability and security, fixing several bugs related to window centering, DevTools interaction, and preload script caching, alongside updating Chromium and Node.js dependencies.

🐛 Bug Fixes

  • Fixed a browser process crash when calling webContents.reload() or navigating synchronously from the render-process-gone event by ensuring the event is emitted after the renderer's teardown notification completes.
  • Fixed an issue on Linux and Windows where frameless windows would shrink when calling win.center().
  • Fixed an issue where frameless windows appeared slightly off-center on Windows.
  • Fixed an issue where the "Toggle Developer Tools" menu item failed to function correctly with BaseWindow.
  • Fixed sandboxed preload scripts running a stale cached version after the script was modified without its file size changing.
  • Fixed the context menu in a detached DevTools window focusing the inspected page's window instead of the DevTools window.
