|
|
<li>When using the Angrylion RDP (graphics) plugin, the RSP is now emulated with parallel-rsp instead of cxd4<ul>

|
<p><b>v6.22.4 (Windows only)</b></p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Moved the SD card mounting feature out of the core Parallel Launcher install and into a downloadable extension because poorly designed virus scanners were flagging anything using the Windows virtual disk APIs as potentially dangerous.

|
<p><b>v6.21.0</b></p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
