This is the first release with a delta installer (Windows only). This should speed up updates from v2.6.1 as it doesn't have to download all of the libraries. If you're downloading from GitHub, please do not get the CraftOS-PC-Setup_Delta-v2.6.1.exe installer unless you already have v2.6.1 installed.

Due to the notes about the new mobile UIs above, the Android build is still v2.6.1. If you want to test out v2.6.2 with the new UI, please go to the beta build page to download it separately. This applies to iOS as well.

If you need help using CraftOS-PC, I'm available on the CraftOS-PC Discord server as @JackMacWindows#9776. Feel free to ping me if you need anything.
