- Windows: Update Win32 OpenSSL from 1.0.2k to 1.0.2n
      Fixes several CVEs
    - Windows: Upgrade bundled VcXsrv from 1.17.0.0-3 (X2Go/Arctica Build)
      to 1.20.0.0 (upstream build)
        + Fixes https://github.com/ArcticaProject/nx-libs/issues/600

The installer, x2goclient-4.1.2.0-2018.06.22-setup.exe , is available under this folder:

• https://code.x2go.org/releases/binary-win32/x2goclient/releases/4.1.2.0-2018.06.22/

X2Go Client is currently only released as a 32-bit x86 build. Both 32-bit x86 and 64-bit x86 versions of Windows are supported via this build.

• Windows 7 SP1
• Windows 8.1 (with “Update 1”)
• Windows 10 (1709)
• Windows 10 (1803)

These versions of Windows without the latest (specified) service pack / major update are probably compatible, but are rarely (if ever) tested. They are not officially supported.

Corresponding server versions of Windows are also supported, but receive minimal testing:

• Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1
• Windows Server 2012
• Windows Server 2012 R2 (with or without “Update 1”)
• Windows Server 2016

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.

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 & Ubuntu 18.04 . (x2goserver 4.1.0.0 added support for nx-libs 3.6 beta, so it is correlated with it.)

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”.
