Breaking Changes

  • Migrated from .NET 8.0 (LTS) to .NET 10.0 (LTS). Upgrade your .NET Desktop Runtime to version 10.0 (LTS) - x64 before you install this version. #3229

  • AWS Session Manager feature has been removed. The AWS Session Manager Plugin is not actively maintained and contains several bugs (e.g. German / Spain keyboard layout issues). The current code base was also difficult to maintain and extend, and I currently have no test environment. The Sync feature (EC2 instances -> Profiles) has been removed as well, because it was limited to AWS Session Manager only. This will be re-introduced in a future release to support multiple providers (AWS, Azure, etc.) and more features like Ping Monitor, PuTTY or Remote Desktop.

    :::note

    You can still use AWS Session Manager within NETworkManager with the PowerShell feature by using the aws ssm start-session --target <instance-id> command.

Bug Fixes

PowerShell

  • Resolve the actual path to pwsh.exe under C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\ instead of relying on the stub located at %LocalAppData%\Microsoft\WindowsApps\. The stub simply redirects to the real executable, and settings such as themes are applied only to the real binary via the registry. #3246
  • The new profile filter popup introduced in version 2025.10.18.0 was instantly closed when a PowerShell session was opened and the respective application / view was selected. #3219

PuTTY
