XDG Desktop Portal provides restore tokens to restore a previously
selected PipeWire stream instead of prompting the user again. This
restore token is single use only and it has to be replaced when the
stream is completed/stopped.
BaseCapturerPipewire maintains two source IDs: one is initialized by
the constructor for new sources (source_id_) and another is for
capturing previously selected sources (selected_source_id_). The
restore token was always being stored under `source_id_`, even if the
capture was ongoing for `selected_source_id_`. This prevents a stream
from being restored more than once. Fix that by storing the restore
token under the selected source ID if it exists.

GetPathConstant calls base::internal::flat_tree<Key, GetKeyFromValue, KeyCompare, Container>::find(Key const&) const which is not constexpr.
GCC 12 and earlier raise a compile error on this.
Propagate layout call to all children of InspectableWebContentsViewViews.
When BrowserView bounds are set from js, those might not trigger layout
immediately, sometimes propagating InvalidateLayout call to parent.
View is marked as needing layout, expecting to receive it from parent on
next layout call. The problem is that BrowserView's view is added as child
of InspectableWebContentsViews which does not call setBounds (which
would trigger layout) on all of it's children when doing it's layout,
so it skips propagating Layout call to its children BrowserViews views,
even though those were marked as needing layout.
Call base class View::Layout which will iterate over views' children
and call Layout on those that were marked as needing them.
Fixes#39993.

* fix: disable background throttling also in the `viz::DisplayScheduler`
`viz::DisplayScheduler` is responsible for drawing and swapping frames
in the `DisplayScheduler::DrawAndSwap` which is called from the
`DisplayScheduler::AttemptDrawAndSwap` if the `DisplayScheduler::ShouldDraw`
returns true. `ShouldDraw` depends on the `DisplayScheduler` visibility
and when it is not visible then it returns false.
In order to keep producing frames, disabling `backgroundThrottling`
should also prevent changing `DisplayScheduler` visibility to false.
`DisplayScheduler` lives in the `ui::Compositor` where every
`electron::NativewWindow` has its own `Compositor`. `electron::NativewWindow`
may be host of the multiple `electron::api::WebContents` instances which may
have different `WebPreferences` settings. Therefore if at least one
of the `WebContents` requires disabling throttling then all other `WebContents`
using the same window will have it disabled in the `ui::Compositor`.
BREAKING CHANGE:
`backgroundThrottling` set to false will disable frames throttling
in the `BrowserWindow` for all `WebContents` displayed by it.
Close: [#31016](https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/31016)

* fix: delete desktop capturers when they're not needed
Delete desktop capturer objects by resetting the DesktopMediaList
objects that own them after the sources have been collected. Capturers
that are not delegated are already being reset via a patch on
NativeDesktopMediaList. That is not safe for delegated capturers as
thumbnail generation depends on user events. Deleting the
DesktopMediaList operation is safe for all capturers and releases OS
capture resources as soon as possible.
* fix: add a patch to clean up PipeWire resources
Adding a patch to workaround a Chromium issue:
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1467060
The patch can be removed when the issue is resolved.
Screensharing with PipeWire via XDG Desktop Portal requires explicit
user permission via permission dialogs. Chromium has separate tabs for
screens and windows and thus its portal implementation requests
permissions separately for each. However, the screencast portal has no
such limitation and supports both screens and windows in a single
request.
WebRTC now supports this type of capture in a new method called
called `CreateGenericCapturer`. The `desktopCapturer` implementation has
been modified to use it. Additionally, Chromium has been patched to use
same generic capturer to ensure that the source IDs remain valid for
`getUserMedia`.
* perf: avoid string temporary in HidChooserController::PhysicalDeviceIdFromDeviceInfo()
return a const ref instead of a new string
* perf: avoid second map lookup in HidChooserController::AddDeviceInfo()
* fix: use StartUpdating method for PipeWire capturer
Fixed a crash related to PipeWire capturer by adapting to Chromium's
interface changes. Chromium expects a call to
`NativeDesktopMediaList::StartUpdating` with an implementation of
`DesktopMediaListObserver` for delegated capturers like PipeWire. This
interface allows listening to user permission events and listing
sources only after the user has made a choice on the permission dialog.
The interface has been implemented by an inner class to allow listening
to screen and window capture permissions concurrently using two
instances of the class. A patch that was resetting the capturer on the
first refresh has been changed to exclude PipeWire. PipeWire capturer
object will follow the lifecycle of `NativeDesktopMediaList`, as is the
case in Chromium.
Fixes#37463
* fix: wait for thumbnails from PipeWire when necessary
The PipeWire stream starts after the dialog is dismissed. If the sources
are listed immediately afterwards, the thumbnail may not have been
generated by that time. Explicitly wait for both thumbnail generation
and a selection on the source dialog before listing sources.

upstream tldr:

+ content::ContentBrowserClient::GetMediaDeviceIDSalt()
This commit leaves ElectronBrowserContext::GetMediaDeviceIDSalt() in
place (now non-virtual, non-override). It is now called by the new
function ElectronBrowserClient::GetMediaDeviceIDSalt().
As a followup, we might want to consider using the new upstream
media_device_salt::MediaDeviceSaltService and removing our
electron::MediaDeviceIDSalt code. CC @MarshallOfSound for 2nd
opinion since he has done the most work on MediaDeviceIDSalt and

We're currently building these on the heap with `std::set<std::string>`
but this can be a very small compile-time container instead.
Marking as 'refactor' rather than 'perf' since this isn't called often,
but moving from heap to compile-time is good and using this container
makes the code more readable.

Otherwise, we passed it up to the base class' UpdatePrintSettings().
CL4313019 removed the cookie param, so checking for a bad cookie
param is no longer necessary / no longer possible. Since the only
remaining task was to pass the work up to the base class, this commit
removes the subclass implmentation entirely.

Hello @${{ github.event.issue.user.login }}. Thanks for reporting this and helping to make Electron better!
Would it be possible for you to make a standalone testcase with only the code necessary to reproduce the issue? For example, [Electron Fiddle](https://www.electronjs.org/fiddle) is a great tool for making small test cases and makes it easy to publish your test case to a [gist](https://gist.github.com) that Electron maintainers can use.
Stand-alone test cases make fixing issues go more smoothly: it ensure everyone's looking at the same issue, it removes all unnecessary variables from the equation, and it can also provide the basis for automated regression tests.
Now adding the `blocked/need-repro` label for this reason. After you make a test case, please link to it in a followup comment. This issue will be closed in 10 days if the above is not addressed.

*`hasShadow` boolean (optional) - Whether window should have a shadow. Default is `true`.
*`opacity` number (optional) _macOS__Windows_ - Set the initial opacity of
the window, between 0.0 (fully transparent) and 1.0 (fully opaque). This
is only implemented on Windows and macOS.
*`darkTheme` boolean (optional) - Forces using dark theme for the window, only works on
some GTK+3 desktop environments. Default is `false`.
*`transparent` boolean (optional) - Makes the window [transparent](../tutorial/window-customization.md#create-transparent-windows).
Default is `false`. On Windows, does not work unless the window is frameless.
*`type` string (optional) - The type of window, default is normal window. See more about
this below.
*`visualEffectState` string (optional) _macOS_ - Specify how the material
appearance should reflect window activity state on macOS. Must be used
with the `vibrancy` property. Possible values are:
*`followWindow` - The backdrop should automatically appear active when the window is active, and inactive when it is not. This is the default.
*`active` - The backdrop should always appear active.
*`inactive` - The backdrop should always appear inactive.
*`titleBarStyle` string (optional) _macOS__Windows_ - The style of window title bar.
Default is `default`. Possible values are:
*`default` - Results in the standard title bar for macOS or Windows respectively.
*`hidden` - Results in a hidden title bar and a full size content window. On macOS, the window still has the standard window controls (“traffic lights”) in the top left. On Windows, when combined with `titleBarOverlay: true` it will activate the Window Controls Overlay (see `titleBarOverlay` for more information), otherwise no window controls will be shown.
*`hiddenInset`_macOS_ - Only on macOS, results in a hidden title bar
with an alternative look where the traffic light buttons are slightly
more inset from the window edge.

title bar and a full size content window, the traffic light buttons will
display when being hovered over in the top left of the window.
`tooltip`, `content`, `under-window`, or `under-page`. Please note that
`appearance-based`, `light`, `dark`, `medium-light`, and `ultra-dark` are
deprecated and have been removed in macOS Catalina (10.15).
*`zoomToPageWidth` boolean (optional) _macOS_ - Controls the behavior on
macOS when option-clicking the green stoplight button on the toolbar or by
clicking the Window > Zoom menu item. If `true`, the window will grow to
the preferred width of the web page when zoomed, `false` will cause it to
zoom to the width of the screen. This will also affect the behavior when
calling `maximize()` directly. Default is `false`.
*`tabbingIdentifier` string (optional) _macOS_ - Tab group name, allows
opening the window as a native tab. Windows with the same
tabbing identifier will be grouped together. This also adds a native new
tab button to your window's tab bar and allows your `app` and window to
receive the `new-window-for-tab` event.
*`webPreferences` Object (optional) - Settings of web page's features.
*`devTools` boolean (optional) - Whether to enable DevTools. If it is set to `false`, can not use `BrowserWindow.webContents.openDevTools()` to open DevTools. Default is `true`.

in [Multithreading](../tutorial/multithreading.md).
*`nodeIntegrationInSubFrames` boolean (optional) - Experimental option for
enabling Node.js support in sub-frames such as iframes and child windows. All your preloads will load for
every iframe, you can use `process.isMainFrame` to determine if you are
in the main frame or not.
*`preload` string (optional) - Specifies a script that will be loaded before other
scripts run in the page. This script will always have access to node APIs
no matter whether node integration is turned on or off. The value should
be the absolute file path to the script.
When node integration is turned off, the preload script can reintroduce
Node global symbols back to the global scope. See example
*`sandbox` boolean (optional) - If set, this will sandbox the renderer
associated with the window, making it compatible with the Chromium
OS-level sandbox and disabling the Node.js engine. This is not the same as
the `nodeIntegration` option and the APIs available to the preload script
are more limited. Read more about the option [here](../tutorial/sandbox.md).
*`session` [Session](session.md#class-session) (optional) - Sets the session used by the
page. Instead of passing the Session object directly, you can also choose to
use the `partition` option instead, which accepts a partition string. When
both `session` and `partition` are provided, `session` will be preferred.
Default is the default session.
*`partition` string (optional) - Sets the session used by the page according to the
session's partition string. If `partition` starts with `persist:`, the page
will use a persistent session available to all pages in the app with the
same `partition`. If there is no `persist:` prefix, the page will use an
in-memory session. By assigning the same `partition`, multiple pages can share
the same session. Default is the default session.
*`zoomFactor` number (optional) - The default zoom factor of the page, `3.0` represents
`300%`. Default is `1.0`.
*`javascript` boolean (optional) - Enables JavaScript support. Default is `true`.
*`webSecurity` boolean (optional) - When `false`, it will disable the
same-origin policy (usually using testing websites by people), and set
`allowRunningInsecureContent` to `true` if this options has not been set
by user. Default is `true`.
*`allowRunningInsecureContent` boolean (optional) - Allow an https page to run
JavaScript, CSS or plugins from http URLs. Default is `false`.
*`images` boolean (optional) - Enables image support. Default is `true`.
*`imageAnimationPolicy` string (optional) - Specifies how to run image animations (E.g. GIFs). Can be `animate`, `animateOnce` or `noAnimation`. Default is `animate`.
*`textAreasAreResizable` boolean (optional) - Make TextArea elements resizable. Default
is `true`.
*`webgl` boolean (optional) - Enables WebGL support. Default is `true`.
*`plugins` boolean (optional) - Whether plugins should be enabled. Default is `false`.
*`defaultFontFamily` Object (optional) - Sets the default font for the font-family.
*`standard` string (optional) - Defaults to `Times New Roman`.
*`serif` string (optional) - Defaults to `Times New Roman`.
*`sansSerif` string (optional) - Defaults to `Arial`.
*`monospace` string (optional) - Defaults to `Courier New`.
*`cursive` string (optional) - Defaults to `Script`.
*`fantasy` string (optional) - Defaults to `Impact`.

*`defaultEncoding` string (optional) - Defaults to `ISO-8859-1`.
*`backgroundThrottling` boolean (optional) - Whether to throttle animations and timers
when the page becomes background. This also affects the
[Page Visibility API](#page-visibility). Defaults to `true`.
*`offscreen` boolean (optional) - Whether to enable offscreen rendering for the browser
window. Defaults to `false`. See the
[offscreen rendering tutorial](../tutorial/offscreen-rendering.md) for
more details.
*`contextIsolation` boolean (optional) - Whether to run Electron APIs and
the specified `preload` script in a separate JavaScript context. Defaults
to `true`. The context that the `preload` script runs in will only have
access to its own dedicated `document` and `window` globals, as well as
its own set of JavaScript builtins (`Array`, `Object`, `JSON`, etc.),
which are all invisible to the loaded content. The Electron API will only
be available in the `preload` script and not the loaded page. This option
should be used when loading potentially untrusted remote content to ensure
the loaded content cannot tamper with the `preload` script and any
Electron APIs being used. This option uses the same technique used by
[Chrome Content Scripts][chrome-content-scripts]. You can access this
context in the dev tools by selecting the 'Electron Isolated Context'
entry in the combo box at the top of the Console tab.
*`webviewTag` boolean (optional) - Whether to enable the [`<webview>` tag](webview-tag.md).
Defaults to `false`. **Note:** The
`preload` script configured for the `<webview>` will have node integration
enabled when it is executed so you should ensure remote/untrusted content
is not able to create a `<webview>` tag with a possibly malicious `preload`
script. You can use the `will-attach-webview` event on [webContents](web-contents.md)
to strip away the `preload` script and to validate or alter the
`<webview>`'s initial settings.
*`additionalArguments` string[] (optional) - A list of strings that will be appended
to `process.argv` in the renderer process of this app. Useful for passing small
bits of data down to renderer process preload scripts.
*`safeDialogs` boolean (optional) - Whether to enable browser style
consecutive dialog protection. Default is `false`.
*`safeDialogsMessage` string (optional) - The message to display when
consecutive dialog protection is triggered. If not defined the default
message would be used, note that currently the default message is in
English and not localized.
*`disableDialogs` boolean (optional) - Whether to disable dialogs
completely. Overrides `safeDialogs`. Default is `false`.
*`navigateOnDragDrop` boolean (optional) - Whether dragging and dropping a
file or link onto the page causes a navigation. Default is `false`.
*`autoplayPolicy` string (optional) - Autoplay policy to apply to
content in the window, can be `no-user-gesture-required`,
`user-gesture-required`, `document-user-activation-required`. Defaults to
`no-user-gesture-required`.
*`disableHtmlFullscreenWindowResize` boolean (optional) - Whether to
prevent the window from resizing when entering HTML Fullscreen. Default
is `false`.
*`accessibleTitle` string (optional) - An alternative title string provided only
to accessibility tools such as screen readers. This string is not directly
visible to users.
*`spellcheck` boolean (optional) - Whether to enable the builtin spellchecker.
Default is `true`.
*`enableWebSQL` boolean (optional) - Whether to enable the [WebSQL api](https://www.w3.org/TR/webdatabase/).
Default is `true`.
*`v8CacheOptions` string (optional) - Enforces the v8 code caching policy
used by blink. Accepted values are
*`none` - Disables code caching
*`code` - Heuristic based code caching
*`bypassHeatCheck` - Bypass code caching heuristics but with lazy compilation
*`bypassHeatCheckAndEagerCompile` - Same as above except compilation is eager.
Default policy is `code`.
*`enablePreferredSizeMode` boolean (optional) - Whether to enable
preferred size mode. The preferred size is the minimum size needed to
contain the layout of the document—without requiring scrolling. Enabling
this will cause the `preferred-size-changed` event to be emitted on the
`WebContents` when the preferred size changes. Default is `false`.
*`titleBarOverlay` Object | Boolean (optional) - When using a frameless window in conjunction with `win.setWindowButtonVisibility(true)` on macOS or using a `titleBarStyle` so that the standard window controls ("traffic lights" on macOS) are visible, this property enables the Window Controls Overlay [JavaScript APIs][overlay-javascript-apis] and [CSS Environment Variables][overlay-css-env-vars]. Specifying `true` will result in an overlay with default system colors. Default is `false`.
*`color` String (optional) _Windows_ - The CSS color of the Window Controls Overlay when enabled. Default is the system color.
*`symbolColor` String (optional) _Windows_ - The CSS color of the symbols on the Window Controls Overlay when enabled. Default is the system color.
*`height` Integer (optional) _macOS__Windows_ - The height of the title bar and Window Controls Overlay in pixels. Default is system height.
When setting minimum or maximum window size with `minWidth`/`maxWidth`/
`minHeight`/`maxHeight`, it only constrains the users. It won't prevent you from
passing a size that does not follow size constraints to `setBounds`/`setSize` or
to the constructor of `BrowserWindow`.
The possible values and behaviors of the `type` option are platform dependent.
Possible values are:
* On Linux, possible types are `desktop`, `dock`, `toolbar`, `splash`,
`notification`.
* On macOS, possible types are `desktop`, `textured`, `panel`.
* The `textured` type adds metal gradient appearance
(`NSWindowStyleMaskTexturedBackground`).
* The `desktop` type places the window at the desktop background window level
(`kCGDesktopWindowLevel - 1`). Note that desktop window will not receive
focus, keyboard or mouse events, but you can use `globalShortcut` to receive
input sparingly.
* The `panel` type enables the window to float on top of full-screened apps
by adding the `NSWindowStyleMaskNonactivatingPanel` style mask,normally
reserved for NSPanel, at runtime. Also, the window will appear on all

When setting minimum or maximum window size with `minWidth`/`maxWidth`/
`minHeight`/`maxHeight`, it only constrains the users. It won't prevent you from
passing a size that does not follow size constraints to `setBounds`/`setSize` or
to the constructor of `BrowserWindow`.
The possible values and behaviors of the `type` option are platform dependent.
Possible values are:
* On Linux, possible types are `desktop`, `dock`, `toolbar`, `splash`,
`notification`.
* The `desktop` type places the window at the desktop background window level
(kCGDesktopWindowLevel - 1). However, note that a desktop window will not
receive focus, keyboard, or mouse events. You can still use globalShortcut to
receive input sparingly.
* The `dock` type creates a dock-like window behavior.
* The `toolbar` type creates a window with a toolbar appearance.
* The `splash` type behaves in a specific way. It is not
draggable, even if the CSS styling of the window's body contains
-webkit-app-region: drag. This type is commonly used for splash screens.
* The `notification` type creates a window that behaves like a system notification.
* On macOS, possible types are `desktop`, `textured`, `panel`.
* The `textured` type adds metal gradient appearance
(`NSWindowStyleMaskTexturedBackground`).
* The `desktop` type places the window at the desktop background window level
(`kCGDesktopWindowLevel - 1`). Note that desktop window will not receive
focus, keyboard or mouse events, but you can use `globalShortcut` to receive
input sparingly.
* The `panel` type enables the window to float on top of full-screened apps
by adding the `NSWindowStyleMaskNonactivatingPanel` style mask,normally
reserved for NSPanel, at runtime. Also, the window will appear on all

This only applies to messages sent from a different renderer. Messages sent directly from the main process set `event.senderId` to `0`.
*`ports` [MessagePort][][] - A list of MessagePorts that were transferred with this message
*`devTools` boolean (optional) - Whether to enable DevTools. If it is set to `false`, can not use `BrowserWindow.webContents.openDevTools()` to open DevTools. Default is `true`.
*`nodeIntegration` boolean (optional) - Whether node integration is enabled.
Default is `false`.
*`nodeIntegrationInWorker` boolean (optional) - Whether node integration is
enabled in web workers. Default is `false`. More about this can be found
in [Multithreading](../../tutorial/multithreading.md).
*`nodeIntegrationInSubFrames` boolean (optional) - Experimental option for
enabling Node.js support in sub-frames such as iframes and child windows. All your preloads will load for
every iframe, you can use `process.isMainFrame` to determine if you are
in the main frame or not.
*`preload` string (optional) - Specifies a script that will be loaded before other
scripts run in the page. This script will always have access to node APIs
no matter whether node integration is turned on or off. The value should
be the absolute file path to the script.
When node integration is turned off, the preload script can reintroduce
Node global symbols back to the global scope. See example
*`sandbox` boolean (optional) - If set, this will sandbox the renderer
associated with the window, making it compatible with the Chromium
OS-level sandbox and disabling the Node.js engine. This is not the same as
the `nodeIntegration` option and the APIs available to the preload script
are more limited. Read more about the option [here](../../tutorial/sandbox.md).
*`session` [Session](../session.md#class-session) (optional) - Sets the session used by the
page. Instead of passing the Session object directly, you can also choose to
use the `partition` option instead, which accepts a partition string. When
both `session` and `partition` are provided, `session` will be preferred.
Default is the default session.
*`partition` string (optional) - Sets the session used by the page according to the
session's partition string. If `partition` starts with `persist:`, the page
will use a persistent session available to all pages in the app with the
same `partition`. If there is no `persist:` prefix, the page will use an
in-memory session. By assigning the same `partition`, multiple pages can share
the same session. Default is the default session.
*`zoomFactor` number (optional) - The default zoom factor of the page, `3.0` represents
`300%`. Default is `1.0`.
*`javascript` boolean (optional) - Enables JavaScript support. Default is `true`.
*`webSecurity` boolean (optional) - When `false`, it will disable the
same-origin policy (usually using testing websites by people), and set
`allowRunningInsecureContent` to `true` if this options has not been set
by user. Default is `true`.
*`allowRunningInsecureContent` boolean (optional) - Allow an https page to run
JavaScript, CSS or plugins from http URLs. Default is `false`.
*`images` boolean (optional) - Enables image support. Default is `true`.
*`imageAnimationPolicy` string (optional) - Specifies how to run image animations (E.g. GIFs). Can be `animate`, `animateOnce` or `noAnimation`. Default is `animate`.
*`textAreasAreResizable` boolean (optional) - Make TextArea elements resizable. Default
is `true`.
*`webgl` boolean (optional) - Enables WebGL support. Default is `true`.
*`plugins` boolean (optional) - Whether plugins should be enabled. Default is `false`.
*`invertedColorScheme` boolean - `true` if an inverted color scheme (a high contrast color scheme with light text and dark backgrounds) is being used, `false` otherwise.

Several events can be used to monitor navigations as they occur within a `webContents`.
### Document Navigations
When a `webContents` navigates to another page (as opposed to an [in-page navigation](web-contents.md#in-page-navigation)), the following events will be fired.
* [`did-navigate`](web-contents.md#event-did-navigate) (only fired when main frame navigates)
Subsequent events will not fire if `event.preventDefault()` is called on any of the cancellable events.
### In-page Navigation
In-page navigations don't cause the page to reload, but instead navigate to a location within the current page. These events are not cancellable. For an in-page navigations, the following events will fire in this order:
The [`will-navigate`](web-contents.md#event-will-navigate) and [`did-navigate`](web-contents.md#event-did-navigate) events only fire when the [mainFrame](web-contents.md#contentsmainframe-readonly) navigates.
If you want to also observe navigations in `<iframe>`s, use [`will-frame-navigate`](web-contents.md#event-will-frame-navigate) and [`did-frame-navigate`](web-contents.md#event-did-frame-navigate) events.

* **Deprecated:** An API was marked as deprecated. The API will continue to function, but will emit a deprecation warning, and will be removed in a future release.
* **Removed:** An API or feature was removed, and is no longer supported by Electron.
## Planned Breaking API Changes (29.0)
### Behavior Changed: `ipcRenderer` can no longer be sent over the `contextBridge`
Attempting to send `ipcRenderer` as an object over the `contextBridge` will now result in
an empty object on the receiving side of the bridge. This change was made to remove / mitigate
a security footgun, you should not directly expose ipcRenderer or it's methods over the bridge.
`BrowserWindow.getTrafficLightPosition()` has been removed, the
`BrowserWindow.getWindowButtonPosition()` API should be used instead
which returns `null` instead of `{ x: 0, y: 0 }` when there is no custom
position.
```js
// Removed in Electron 28
constpos=win.getTrafficLightPosition()
if(pos.x===0&&pos.y===0){
// No custom position.
}
// Replace with
constret=win.getWindowButtonPosition()
if(ret===null){
// No custom position.
}
```
### Removed: `ipcRenderer.sendTo()`
The `ipcRenderer.sendTo()` API has been removed. It should be replaced by setting up a [`MessageChannel`](tutorial/message-ports.md#setting-up-a-messagechannel-between-two-renderers) between the renderers.
The `senderId` and `senderIsMainFrame` properties of `IpcRendererEvent` have been removed as well.
### Removed: `app.runningUnderRosettaTranslation`
The `app.runningUnderRosettaTranslation` property has been removed.
Use `app.runningUnderARM64Translation` instead.
```js
// Removed
console.log(app.runningUnderRosettaTranslation)
// Replace with
console.log(app.runningUnderARM64Translation)
```
### Deprecated: `renderer-process-crashed` event on `app`
The `renderer-process-crashed` event on `app` has been deprecated.
macOS 10.13 (High Sierra) and macOS 10.14 (Mojave) are no longer supported by [Chromium](https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/chromium/src/+/4629466).
Older versions of Electron will continue to run on these operating systems, but macOS 10.15 (Catalina)
or later will be required to run Electron v27.0.0 and higher.
### Deprecated: `ipcRenderer.sendTo()`
The `ipcRenderer.sendTo()` API has been deprecated. It should be replaced by setting up a [`MessageChannel`](tutorial/message-ports.md#setting-up-a-messagechannel-between-two-renderers) between the renderers.
The `senderId` and `senderIsMainFrame` properties of `IpcRendererEvent` have been deprecated as well.
### Removed: color scheme events in `systemPreferences`
The following `systemPreferences` events have been removed:
*`inverted-color-scheme-changed`
*`high-contrast-color-scheme-changed`
Use the new `updated` event on the `nativeTheme` module instead.
Electron CI on Windows uses AppVeyor, which in turn uses Azure VM images to run. Occasionally, these VM images need to be updated due to changes in Chromium requirements. In order to update you will need [PowerShell](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/scripting/install/installing-powershell?view=powershell-7.3&viewFallbackFrom=powershell-6) and the [Azure PowerShell module](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/azure/install-az-ps?view=azps-9.5.0&viewFallbackFrom=azps-1.8.0).
Occasionally we need to update these images owing to changes in Chromium or other miscellaneous build requirement changes.
Example Use Case:
* We need `VS15.9` and we have `VS15.7` installed; this would require us to update an Azure image.
1. Identify the image you wish to modify.
* In [appveyor.yml](https://github.com/electron/electron/blob/main/appveyor.yml), the image is identified by the property _image_.
* The names used correspond to the _"images"_ defined for a build cloud, eg the [libcc-20 cloud](https://windows-ci.electronjs.org/build-clouds/8).
* Find the image you wish to modify in the build cloud and make note of the **VHD Blob Path** for that image, which is the value for that corresponding key.
* You will need this URI path to copy into a new image.
* You will also need the storage account name which is labeled in AppVeyor as the **Disk Storage Account Name**
2. Get the Azure storage account key
* Log into Azure using credentials stored in LastPass (under Azure Enterprise) and then find the storage account corresponding to the name found in AppVeyor.
* Example, for `appveyorlibccbuilds`**Disk Storage Account Name** you'd look for `appveyorlibccbuilds` in the list of storage accounts @ Home < Storage Accounts
* Click into it and look for `Access Keys`, and then you can use any of the keys present in the list.
3. Get the full virtual machine image URI from Azure
* Navigate to Home < Storage Accounts < `$ACCT_NAME` < Blobs < Images
* In the following list, look for the VHD path name you got from Appveyor and then click on it.
* Copy the whole URL from the top of the subsequent window.
4. Copy the image using the [Copy Master Image PowerShell script](https://github.com/appveyor/ci/blob/master/scripts/enterprise/copy-master-image-azure.ps1).
* It is essential to copy the VM because if you spin up a VM against an image that image cannot at the same time be used by AppVeyor.
* Use the storage account name, key, and URI obtained from Azure to run this script.
* See Step 3 for URI & when prompted, press enter to use same storage account as destination.
* Use default destination container name `(images)`
* Also, when naming the copy, use a name that indicates what the new image will contain (if that has changed) and date stamp.
* Ex. `libcc-20core-vs2017-15.9-2019-04-15.vhd`
* Go into Azure and get the URI for the newly created image as described in a previous step
5. Spin up a new VM using the [Create Master VM from VHD PowerShell](https://github.com/appveyor/ci/blob/master/scripts/enterprise/create_master_vm_from_vhd.ps1).
* From PowerShell, execute `ps1` file with `./create_master_vm_from_vhd.ps1`
* You will need the credential information available in the AppVeyor build cloud definition.
* This includes:
* Client ID
* Client Secret
* Tenant ID
* Subscription ID
* Resource Group
* Virtual Network
* You will also need to specify
* Master VM name - just a unique name to identify the temporary VM
* Master VM size - use `Standard_F32s_v2`
* Master VHD URI - use URI obtained @ end of previous step
* Location use `East US`
6. Log back into Azure and find the VM you just created in Home < Virtual Machines < `$YOUR_NEW_VM`
* You can download a RDP (Remote Desktop) file to access the VM.
7. Using Microsoft Remote Desktop, click `Connect` to connect to the VM.
* Credentials for logging into the VM are found in LastPass under the `AppVeyor Enterprise master VM` credentials.
8. Modify the VM as required.
9. Shut down the VM and then delete it in Azure.
10. Add the new image to the Appveyor Cloud settings or modify an existing image to point to the new VHD.
