One of the primary issues resolved in this version was the malfunctioning of collapsed tabs, which previously did not expand fully across the window. Users can now enjoy a more seamless layout when navigating their browsing sessions. Additionally, the update rectifies the misleading display of warnings for unsigned extensions, ensuring that users are better informed about potential security risks associated with these add-ons.
Another significant enhancement is the resolution of a bug that caused the browser's compact mode to become unresponsive after the previous update. Users can now switch smoothly between regular and compact modes, improving their browsing flexibility. Furthermore, the update has removed an unwanted border that occasionally appeared at the top of the window, contributing to a more polished interface.
In addition to these major fixes, version 1.17.1b includes various minor bug fixes and improvements that aim to elevate the overall user experience.
From a design perspective, the release introduces visual updates that align the control centers on Linux and Windows systems with a 'flat' design, harmonizing with the native aesthetics of these platforms. This contemporary look not only enhances the visual appeal but also ensures a more functional browsing environment.
Overall, Zen Browser 1.17.1b marks a significant step forward in providing a more enjoyable, efficient, and visually pleasing browsing experience for its users. As the development team continues to focus on user feedback and emerging trends, future updates are expected to introduce even more features and enhancements
