Our goals for v0.33 release cycle was to add in some critical new functionality into the new user experience as well as a plug-in manager for PowerToys Run.

Where is the Video Conference utility?

We'll be doing a 0.34 experimental release week of March 8th. We feel we are near ready to add in Video Conference mute into the stable release pending feedback from the pending 0.34 experimental release.

Highlights from v0.33 Stable/0.34 Experimental

General

• Updated overview links to be language agnostic to the docs site.
