+# June 26, 2026 - Onboarding redesign, live storage progress, and app preconfiguration improvements
+
+Here is a summary of changes shipped since our [last update](/release-notes/command-deck/2026-06-06).
+
+### Onboarding
+
+- New welcome page for first-time users with clear paths to build a USB boot stick, detect an existing server, or get help
+- Returning users see a compact chooser tailored to their situation
+- Improved responsive text and button sizing on smaller screens
+
+### Storage
+
+- Pool scrubbing and resilvering now display live progress in both the storage overview and individual pool detail panels
+- VM-backing zvols are now correctly associated with their storage locations
+- Folder encryption passwords now require a minimum of 8 characters
+
+### Apps
+
+- Preconfiguration installation questions now support password input fields, enabling apps that require local account creation during setup
+- Reworked app lifecycle hook steps UI for clearer appearance and status tracking
+
+### Notifications & Alerts
+
+- Suppressed email alerts for high-volume OS-level notifications like "Too many open files"
+- Prevented TrueNAS alert email failures when the server connection is temporarily unavailable
+- Prevented shutdown tasks from being falsely marked as stale
+- Ensured deterministic event ordering for same-second timestamps
+
+### Reliability
+
+- Prevented false `restart_failed` status for local backend tasks
+- Fixed system reboot and shutdown error handling
+- Fixed null mountpoint guard in storage preferences
+- Removed AVX CPU instruction set from being incorrectly marked as required, restoring support for older CPUs
+- Suppressed terminal bell noise from child process output
+
+### UI
+
+- Fixed details pane content overflow with scrollable areas and a mobile drawer scroll divider
