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.
