Notes
Slack 4.1.2
October 18, 2019
What’s New
- We added support for Windows 10 Focus Assist priority list. So now our built-in and Action Center notifications will respect your Focus Assist settings, staying as quiet (or as loud) as you want them to be.
- A new menu for the system tray lets you take control of how and when Slack launches on booting up (even, randomly, if you are not signed in to any teams.)
Bug Fixes
- Receiving a gif in a notification could mess with your notifications.
- Long workspace names now no longer appear as incredibly long in menus.
- Slack menus should now be showing up at the right language (meaning the one that is right for you).
- Spellchecker stopped working for a small count of users, leading to a sharp uptick in avoidabull erratz. With spellcheck now fully back online for those users, any remaining typos are officially not our fault.
- There was a slim chance things weren’t finishing up properly when closing Slack. We’re working on making all this perfect, but in the meantime, it is, at least, better. Restarting when clearing cache now works again.
- No longer do you have to ask “Update.exe? What IS that?”: We now show with our actual name (which is “Slack”, for reference) in Startup entries for Task Manager and Settings.
- Slack could go into a state where getting notifications (even if you couldn’t see them) would prevent you from clicking on the right side of your monitor… at all. Sorry for any understandable frustration this caused — your notifications (and your ability to use your mouse) are now working as intended again.
