Among the changes that have been implemented since Beta 3, we can mention that there are multiple bug fixes and enhancements to the graphical user interface (GUI), such as a few Qt5 migration regressions, a VBox GUI issue on Solaris 10, and improved keyboard capturing on X11 hosts. Additionally, the X2-APIC feature is now enabled by default for Linux guests, the screenshot functionality has been improved, the resolve.conf file is correctly parsed with multiple separators, a new audio code has been enabled, and some memory leaks have been addressed to improve handling of DMG files.
