Notice
Please be patient to those unfixed bugs, we are trying our best but time for us is always limited. Hope you will understand.

Currently, there are a lot of issues and we are not able to fix all at a time, so please be patient if the issue is still opening in GitHub. I and the team are going to review the structure of the launcher as it is not that good as I wrote them a long time ago, so there won't be any UI redesign and new features coming so certainly. Thanks for heading over and your support.
