What else is new in SuperNova 20.04?

The update to 20.04 also includes a host of additional fixes and improvements. 

Important information for people using Windows 7

Following the release of SuperNova 20, SuperNova no longer supports the Windows 7 operating system. 
SuperNova may continue to run and function on Windows 7. However, as the product is no longer tested on Windows 7, we regret the Dolphin team is not able to fix issues that occur on devices running this operating system.

Important information for people using Windows 7 and Windows 8.1

The next major version upgrade to SuperNova is expected to be available early in 2022. This upgrade to SuperNova will not install or run on devices running Windows 7 or Windows 8.1.
