New ExplorerPatcher update fixes Win + X, Start menu crashes, and more on Windows 11

ExplorerPatcher has released an update, version 22621.4317.67.1, available on GitHub, addressing issues with the Win X menu and Start menu. Key updates include: - The Win+X shortcut is functional on builds 226xx.4317 and above. - Fixed resource loader issues when the boot drive is not C:. - Resolved crashes in the Start menu related to context menus with jump list entries on specific builds. - Improved handling of "Not responding" windows. - Taskbar items now have animated flashing. - The Narrator provides descriptions for the "Show desktop" button. - Added Portuguese (Brazil) translations. Users can download ExplorerPatcher from GitHub, but it may be flagged by Windows Defender and antivirus programs. Microsoft has taken measures against ExplorerPatcher by limiting its functionality in Windows 11 version 24H2 and labeling it as malware. To avoid false positives, users can add specific paths to the exclusion list in Windows Defender. A PowerShell script is provided to facilitate this process.
