* The application now collects more and better information on crashes and other issues
* Improved all dialogs and windows
* Added the version to installer's first screen
* Better reset to defaults
* New regression test framework
* The installation MSI is now timestamped
* The Hyper-V install mentions Docker Toolbox only if it is present

**Known issues**

- Settings are now serialized in JSON. This install loses the current settings.

- Docker needs to open ports on the firewall. Sometimes, the user sees a firewall alert dialog. The user should allow the ports to be opened.

- The application was upgraded to 64 bits. The installation path changed to `C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker`. Users might need to close any Powershell/Cmd windows that were already open before the update to get the new `PATH`. In some cases, users may need to log off and on again.

**Bug Fixes**

  - Fixed DHCP renewal and rebind
  - Only mention toolbox on Hyper-V install if it's present
  - The application does not start twice now
  - DNS/DHCP processes are allowed to restart on bind error now
  - Removed the window that opens quickly during bugsnag reports
  - Fixed OS reported by Bugsnag
  - Improved the build
  - Improved code quality

**Known issues**

- Migration from Docker Toolbox can fail sometimes. If this happens, the workaround is to restart the application.

- Docker needs to open ports on the firewall, which can activate a firewall alert dialog. Users should allow the ports to be opened.

- The application was upgraded to 64 bits. The installation path changed to `C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker`. If users have PowerShell/Cmd windows already open before the update, they might need to close them to catch the new PATH. In some cases, users need to log off and on again.

**Bug Fixes**

- Kill virtual machines that cannot be shut down properly

- Improved the diagnostic information sent with bugsnag reports

- Settings window shows when the drive is shared or not
`C:` drive can be bind mounted with `//c` or `/c`. Used to be `//c/`

- Don't try to submit empty tokens

- Fixed the version shown in the About box
