Patch Notes

Changelog (10.4.2.29)$$$New Features$$$Auto Dark Mode now runs natively on ARM based devices! With all the advantages that come with it; like less battery consumption in the background; which makes your devices last longer. In addition; the app opens faster; and the user interface is much more responsive than before.$$$New tray menu option called Try to fix the theme. If you encounter any random theme switch bugs; like a wrong colored taskbar; you can use the option that hopefully fixes this issue. Press & pray.$$$Improvements$$$If using slideshows in shuffle mode; Auto Dark Mode will now forward the first image; to ensure always a random picture will appear as desktop background. No more boredom caused by the same old image! #247$$$ADM will now always apply the theme when it starts up; even when the system idle check module is enabled #905$$$Added support for more picture file types; ensuring you can make full use of your full wallpaper collection. #872$$$Improved handling of the grayscale color filter; or as @Spiritreader stated in his commit colorus filterus fixus. In this case; fewer bugs lead into fewer colors.$$$The DLL files of Auto Dark Mode are now also signed. This is handy for the users of Windows Smart App Control. #871$$$Upgraded to .NET 8.$$$Fixes$$$The long awaited bug fix for wallpaper switch is here! Sometimes Auto Dark Mode reverted the wallpaper to the previous one right after some seconds. This shouldnt happen anymore. $$$We also fixed a second wallpaper switch issue; where a solid color would be applied; although a picture is set$$$And even more little bug fixes; to improve the reliability with global theme switching in combination with slideshows and multi monitor wallpapers.$$$Fixed an issue where the TimeSwitchModule was triggered right after the BatteryStatusChanged; which leaded into multiple execution of scripts. #787$$$Fixed a rare case on which the startup task couldnt be set. #796$$$Fixed an issue with time sync triggering a theme switch during the lock screen on Windows 10; blocking other events.$$$Fixed an issue causing DWM refresh to occur erroneously twice during theme mode if forced refresh is enabled.$$$Fixed battery event not being checked after enabling the respective setting.$$$Fixed an issue; where if auto switch was disabled and an external switch was made; not all components would refresh properly on reactivation; because their enable-hooks are not called; even though they rely on system state.
