✨ New Features
- Clipboard module is now aligned with the W3C Clipboard API.
- Frameless windows on Linux now use system-themed titlebar icons for Window Controls Overlay (WCO).
🐛 Bug Fixes
- Fixed BrowserWindow size corruption on Windows when created with explicit x/y on a secondary monitor whose DPI differs from the primary.
- Fixed Dirent.parentPath being undefined for fs.readdir, fs.readdirSync, fs.glob, and fs.globSync with withFileTypes: true inside asar archives.
- Fixed select-hid-device presenting HID devices that could not be granted, which caused navigator.hid.requestDevice() to resolve with no device.
- Fixed a UAF with protocol.registerStreamProtocol when an error is emitted during a read.
- Fixed a crash that could occur when closing DevTools while the host WebContents was being destroyed.
- Fixed an issue where loading ICO files from ASAR archives on Windows left temporary icon files behind.
- Fixed an issue where some values passed into requestSingleInstanceLock could result in a crash.
