    • deep-link: updated windows-registry to 0.6 and windows-result to 0.4. The public Error::Windows variant wraps windows_result::Error; applications using this type directly should update their windows-result dependency.
    • opener: updated windows to 0.62. The public Error::Win32Error variant wraps windows::core::Error; applications using this type directly should update their windows dependency.

  • 67cd25a1 (#3592) On Windows, the second instance now allows the first instance to bring its window to the front before exiting, so focusing a window from the callback no longer gets refused by Windows.

Section titled “fix”

  • 98e2c11e (#3194 by @mrquantumoff) Breaking Change: On Linux, the DBus ID/name will now be <bundle-id>.SingleInstance instead of org.<bundle_id_underscores>.SingleInstance to follow DBus specifications.

    This will break the single-instance mechanism across different app versions if the app was installed multiple times.

    Added dbus_id builder method, which can be used to restore previous behavior. For a bundle identifier of com.tauri.my-example this would be dbus_id("org.com_tauri_my_example").

  • 6f345870 (#2860 by @MorpheusXAUT) Fix D-Bus name replacement logic on Linux to prevent multiple instances from acquiring the same well-known name.
    This patch updates the zbus dependency to the latest compatible version (^5.9) and explicitly sets RequestNameFlags to ensure a second instance fails to acquire the D-Bus name when another one is already running.
