• Tweaked how some rules are linked to windows

• Tooltip in Excel when resizing rows or selecting multiple rows should now not vanish when you have more than one Excel window in a Group

• Resolved a problem with the close button on the tab bar not being entirely clickable in some circumstances.

• Dragging the groupy tab bar (not the ungrouped one) will now allow Windows Snap features to work in most cases. There may be some windows that do not support this or situations when using screen recording apps where it may not be enabled.

• MS Edge saved apps will now save correctly in groups. You will need to resave existing groups that contain those apps.

• New option to delete saved groups from the config window.

• Inactive tabs for integrated tab mode now have slightly greyed-out text making them more obvious.

• Accent colors can now be saved for universal apps correctly.

• Resolved a crash in Notepad when turning off Groupy.

• Adjusted Groupy bar border color on MS Word, Excel, Powerpoint, and Outlook to match those apps.

• Added option when in always autohide tab mode to pin a specific group to be always visible.

• Added an option to advanced UI settings to make tabs square for those who prefer that look.

• Tweaked some taskbar handling to see if that helps with Start11 hanging the taskbar for some people.
