      The idea is that they can't if it's configured in the ini. As it's an
      option which should only be available in the .ini they should know how to
      revert it.

      Any idea when you can release the updated version? :)

      I just had another idea.. to make corners rounded :)

      It's a very nice tool, thank you so much!

        OK, got it.
        I need some time (2 or 3 weeks), because I can work only over the weekends.
        I'll check this one also (I just had another idea.. to make corners rounded :)).
        Thank you so much.

            Yes, application itself displays a update notification if Check for updates is not disabled in settings. Could you please check.

    I actually cannot run the software in my environment (no explorer.exe) with the error "Failed to add AltTab tray icon"

    Hi BMG,
    I do not understand clearly. Could you please add some more details. What is no explorer.exe means? What is the OS are you using?

    Hi Lokesh
    Sure :)
    I run Windows Server 2022 and as the shell I configured a custom script which starts some specific software I want to run. so this way explorer.exe is not loaded as a shell app resulting in no Desktop, no Taskbar etc. but just running the apps I defined in a script as the shell. this way there is no way for a program to live in the tray as there is no tray. interestingly I have also other software which normally have a tray icon running, but they don't care and just keep working. so for me it would only be needed to still allow alttab to run without having it's tray icon.

    Hi BMG,
    OK. I don't know about this. I'll take care of this situation. Please give me some time.

    Hi BGM,
    Please check with the attached AltTab.zip and let me know if it works for you.
    Thank you.

    Hi Lokesh Govindu.
    MS Defender doesnt let me run the file.

    Ohh, I do not understand what's the issue here. How come were you able to run previous binaries.
    Recently, I have upgraded to Windows 11. I have just build AltTab on Windows 11. I really do not understand.
