+This is the 1st release to drop support for XP & Vista. Although it is probably possible to still use them by specifying an external X server under x2goclient Options -> Settings, or simply replacing the x2goclient\VcXsrv folder.

 ===== Windows-Specific Bug Fixes =====
-[[https://github.com/ArcticaProject/nx-libs/issues/600|nx-libs issue 600]] When you connect to x2goserver server 4.1.0.0 using nx-libs 3.6 beta (3.5.99.x) rather than nx-libs 3.5.0.x stable, you would likely experience the Desktop flashing when maximizing window. (Despite the title of the issue, it can be experienced with a single screen/monitor on Windows.)
+[[https://github.com/ArcticaProject/nx-libs/issues/600|nx-libs issue 600]] When you connect to an x2go server with nx-libs 3.6 beta (3.5.99.x) rather than nx-libs 3.5.0.x stable, you would likely experience the Desktop flashing when maximizing window. (Despite the title of the issue, it can be experienced with a single screen/monitor on Windows.) Many Linux distros have adopted nx-libs 3.6 beta, such as Fedora 28. (x2goserver 4.1.0.0 added support for nx-libs 3.6 beta, so it is correlated with it.)
 ===== Noteworthy Windows-Specific Bugs =====
 [[http://bugs.x2go.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=611|bug 611]] The server cannot be added to the known_hosts file (and thus you cannot connect to the server) when both of these conditions are met: 1. Your Windows username has non-English characters. 2 Those characters are in a different language than the Windows "system locale".
