What's New

  • Diagnostics: Settings > About now has a Diagnostics section. Copy Diagnostics puts your Windows version, WebView2 version, GPU, monitors and display scale, and recent activity on the clipboard so it can be pasted into a bug report, and Open Log Folder shows the log files. Nectar now keeps a log (nectar.log) and records crashes there. A new switch, Log Dock and Notch Clicks, records where the dock and notch respond to the mouse to help track down clicks that don't register. Calendar links, accounts and your location are never included.
  • Installer: the setup window is larger and now shrinks to fit small laptop screens instead of cutting content off. Buttons stay in view and the content scrolls if there isn't enough room.

Bug Fixes

  • Updates now install. Nectar showed "Update available", but pressing Update did nothing because the update file was missing from the release. It is included from this version on, so every version can update to this one, and a failed update is now recorded in the log.
  • Uninstalling now reliably removes the Nectar folder. The uninstaller could leave it behind when Nectar didn't close on request; it now forces Nectar to close, and if a file is still locked it removes the folder the next time you sign in.
  • The dock and notch could stop responding to clicks on some PCs, or respond only in the middle of the dock, especially with icon-only mode on. Their clickable area is now refreshed regularly so it can't stay stuck at the wrong size (this is a best-effort fix; use Copy Diagnostics if it still happens).
  • If Windows drops Nectar's mouse hook, the dock and notch would stay unclickable until restart. Nectar now notices and reinstalls it, and no longer crashes at startup if the hook can't be installed.
