2.0.0 Preview 1

This is the first preview of version 2.0.0, which is the WinUI 3 rewrite.

Breaking changes

Due to the different signature and configuration file, the WinUI 3 releases (that is, 2.0.0 onwards) are not backwards compatible with the older Islands releases. As such, you will need to manually migrate your rules and uninstall the older version.

New features

.NET 9 and WinUI 3

This version no longer depends on the now-deprecated .NET Core 3.1 and now uses .NET 9 Native AOT. This means a more streamlined installation procedure for MSIX, as there is no need to install a separate runtime.

Trusted Signing packages

The MSIX version now uses Trusted Signing, so no more installing our self-signed certificate.

ARM64 support

ARM64 is now supported natively. In fact, this version is tested exclusively on an ARM64 laptop near the end of its development.

Window picker

This release includes a window picker to assist you in creating new rules.

Regressions and known issues

• A Win32 installer is not available.
• Blur Behind is not yet available.
• The Custom Title Bar Color option doesn't do anything.
• Launching the app as administrator on startup is not available.
• Localization is unavailable, and many labels will be preceded with an underscore (_)

Installation

Download the MicaForEveryone.appinstaller file below. An Internet connection is required.
