2.1.1

This is a bug fix release that fixes the top 5 most common crashes and issues in version 2.1.0.

• Improvement Saves recipes automatically after import. See issue #634.
• Improvement Removes the transparency animation when dragging windows. Transparency now happens instantly. This was linked to the transparency being stuck. See issue #643.
• Bug Fix inconsistent window argument editor. See issue #639.
• Bug Fix crash when cancelling region change on multiple monitors. See issue #635.
• Bug Fix unknown server error when validating license keys. This was caused by missing padding characters in the license keys, because when double-clicking a long string and copying it, Windows would not highlight the trailing padding characters.
• Bug No longer allow MaxTo to subclass child windows. This affected e.g. MikroTik WinBox child windows causing crashes.
• Bug Fix Chromium-based browsers being "restored" when exiting full-screen video. See issue #640.
• Bug Fix NullReferenceException when starting de-elevated process.
• Bug Fix ArgumentException when adding hotkeys during startup.
• Bug Fix a crash that could occur when connecting to a machine via remote desktop.
• Bug Configuration was automatically reset to default if it was unreadable or invalid JSON. Now it presents a dialog box instead.
