Option to open on all apps page now works on Windows Pro and Windows Launcher styles
Resolved "Use a custom menu background" option showing as disabled on open of config even when enabled
Resolved issue with custom accent color impacting Win10 item text on mouseover
Resolved issue with some custom accent colors causing invisible icons on mouseover on quick access shortcut list, all programs list folders, shutdown button
Windows 10 style more button links shown in search results now look like buttons matching the look on the other styles
Icons will now swap to dark options (where provided) when a custom accent colour is in use that requires it on mouseover
Resolved issue with taskbar shortcuts that have been deleted by the user or an uninstaller incorrectly (vs being unpinned) showing as unremovable white icons on the taskbar in enhanced taskbar mode. The icons will now remain and they can be removed by right click unpin for all new cases and old ones will simply no longer show at all.

Resolved issue with custom menu background not correctly painting after menu swaps from one dpi screen to another
Stopped all apps list on Windows App style menu from taking mouse focus when a menu overlapped that window sometimes
Tweaked Start11 autohide mode to no longer reserve any space at the bottom of the screen. This does mean the very bottom pixel of a maximized app isn't clickable, but this shouldn't be an issue as click targets should never be so small.
Tweaked overlay icon on taskbar buttons to be slightly bigger to match Windows 11 unless using small taskbar size
Resolved issue with taskbar thumbnail popups not always showing again after a primary monitor swap
