Release 18.5 beta 7 (TOTAL 5.0.1092):

Fixed issues:

  • Device timelimit lock screen does not appear in front of other windows (PBL-10202, SAFE_BUG-03749)

In case you have the latest, 4.2.69 version of Chrome or Edge browser extension (for Chrome it is available when writing this, for Edge not yet) then you may notice a new feature that allows you to report your suggestion for web page rating using a button of the extension. This feature does not yet work completely correctly, e.g. it has missing logos and icons. This will hopefully be fixed in a few days with a new NIF Web Plugin update.
