    ! Recycle Bin: In the latest version of Windows 11, it was no longer possible to 
      restore a file's original name when pasting it after cutting it from the Recycle 
      Bin. Fixed.
      Background: Win 11 update KB5094126 changed Recycle Bin behavior in various ways.

      are the word boundaries -> what is selected when you double-click the text). Fixed

    + List | Autosize Columns: You can now Ctrl+Right-click the Path column and select 
      "Limit Path Column Autosize" to limit the Path column autosize to one-third of the 
      current list width. This makes sense since paths can get very long, but you don't 
      want them to block all the other information.

    ! Recycle Bin: When restoring items via the context menu in the Recycle Bin, the Bin 
      was not immediately refreshed and the restored item remained visible. Fixed.
    > Note that restoring items via the context menu is not recommended, as this can cause 
      the Undo/Redo buttons and the Action Log to become out of sync. The recommended way 
      to restore deleted items is to use the Undo button or press Ctrl+Z.

    ! Recycle Bin: Could no longer restore files from Recycle Bin in the latest Win 11. 
      Fixed.
      Background: Win 11 update KB5094126 changed Recycle Bin behavior in various ways 
      which led to problems with XY's restore code. Microsoft officially acknowledged 
      Recycle Bin regressions from that June 9, 2026 update. Some of these regressions 
      were fixed in a later update, but some remain. This version of XYplorer adapts to 
      the new environment.

    ! Configuration | Information | Tags | Options... | Database Check...: Any false sort 
      order was internally corrected, but this was not reported to the user or the settings 
      handler. Therefore, the corrected sort order was not immediately applied to the list 
      nor saved when settings were saved. Fixed.
    ! Ignore diacritics: Did not work with Vietnamese đ and Đ. Fixed.
    ! List | Drag-Selecting: Selecting multiple files by dragging the mouse across them 
      could leave some files seemingly unselected (a painting glitch). Fixed.

      Didn't work properly. Fixed.

    + Hover Box: You can now use the Hover Box hotkeys even when the focus is in an edit 
      box, such as the Address Bar or Live Filter Box. Previously, these keys worked in 
      both the Hover Box and the focused edit box simultaneously, which was likely not the 
      user's intention.
    * List: The line numbers column header is now empty in all views. Before, it was "#" 
      in Details views. Cleaner look.
    * List and Small Lists: The focus rectangle is now drawn on top of the hover effect.
    * Menu Window: Changes made here no longer affect the Settings button (it stays green).
    ! Configuration | General | Sort and Rename | Rename | Show name length while 
      renaming: When enabled, a bizarre display glitch caused small ghost rectangles to 
      briefly appear somewhere on the screen. Fixed.

    + Audio Preview: Added tweak to auto-close the preview after the playback is done. 
      This ensures that the previewed file is no longer locked by XYplorer and that other 
      processes can access it fully.
        AutoClose=1
      Note that this tweak only takes effect if "Configuration | Preview | Preview | 
      Audio/Video preview" is set to "Play once".

    * Filter Boxes (Small Lists): The last used filter is now always stored (ready for the 
      next toggle), even if the dialog was canceled or the list was not filtered when the 
      dialog was closed (OK or Cancel). Previously, it was only stored when the dialog was 
      OK-ed and the list was filtered at that point.
      Note that the last used filter is a global value applied to all small filter boxes.
    * Address Bar: The dropdown match list now only appears when the edit box contains 
      at least two characters. This prevents the drive T: from being activated (or even 
      woken up) when you type "t" (e.g. for writing "text") and showing all the matches on 
      it.
    ! Address Bar (with the dropdown button on the left): When you moved the mouse over 
      the dropdown button, then to the icon, and then to anywhere else, the dropdown 
      button continued to capture the mouse movements. This rendered the mouse unusable 
      over the dropdown list, toolbar, tabs, or anything else (no clicks were registered). 
      Fixed.
    ! Tab Bar: Since 2026-06-23, the New Tab and Tab List buttons had no hover effect 
      anymore. Fixed.
