This is a solid release with many substantial updates. To explain the improvements, I categorized the changes by functional area (Core/Global, Viewer, Archive Management, etc.) so you can quickly find what interests you.
New Features
- Core & UI
- Accessibility: Added support for scaled fonts (respects Windows Accessibility font settings that are decoupled from DPI scaling).
- Persistence: Settings now save immediately upon change to prevent data loss in the event of a crash.
- Mask Management: Introduced a uniform mask management system with predefined file groups (e.g., Images, Videos).
- Localization: Added Korean translation (LLM translated).
Below: FileVoyager in a 135% text size environment.
