Added:
+ If MediCat VHD (New project!) is added to a MediCat USB drive, it will automatically generate a folder for it on the Main Menu. From within that VHD folder, you can launch MediCat VHD, and it runs a full Windows 10 installation on your computer. It is far less limiting than Mini Windows 10. MediCat VHD must be downloaded separately, and is 20GB in size. So a 64GB MediCat USB flash drive is the minimum requirement to have them together. MediCat VHD will of course work alone on it's own 32GB USB drive.
+ Simple Vhd Manager v1.4 added to the PortableApps menu.
+ Mouse cursors no longer look ugly in Mini Windows 10, I added the Cursors folder to C:\Windows to resolve this.
+ Memtest86+ v5.31 Beta has been added as a BIOS-bootable Memory tester. This was added because Memtest86 v9.0 is UEFI-only, so now there's a memory tester for each boot mode. Memtest86+ v5.31 Beta has been added to the auto-MEMDISK list, and is transparent to the user. It also adds a nice Shutdown/Restart/Exit menu when exiting the app.
+ WinNc v9.7.0.0 added to PortableApps menu. It's a modern, feature-rich tabbed file explorer with a nice Windows 10 interface.
+ RS RAID Retrieve v1.3 added to PortableApps menu. Handles reassembling corrupted RAID arrays.
Removed:
- TeamViewer has been replaced by AnyDesk. Mostly for compatibility reasons and ease-of-use, but also because TeamViewer just flat-out SUCKS by comparison.
Updated:
~ Many PortableApps have been updated.
~ Ventoy to v1.0.33 <-- (Bug fix version mostly, but adds persistence for Kali and Clonezilla, as well as adding support for Linux VHD files from different bootloaders such as rEFInd, GRUB2, Systemd-boot, and GRUB4DOS.)
~ Mini Windows 10 was run through NTLite to enable Dark Mode, and use small taskbar icons to maximize available screen space. Boot.wim was also recompressed and made a tiny bit smaller.
~ Edited the Windows 10 & Windows 8.1 recovery disc titles by adding "+MS DaRT" at the end, so people know they include the useful MS DaRT utilities.

Menu Changes:
# Version info has been updated.
# Removed the holiday hat.
# Adjusted my signature to look proper on 1920x1080 resolutions or less, up from 1366x768.
# New wallpaper, since the holidays are over.
Fixed:
* The Microsoft .NET regressions have been fixed, apparently the "assembly" folder accidentally got removed before the v20.12 release.
* Fixed an issue where Portable 7-Zip v20.02 alpha was being detected as v19.00 Rev 2, and now won't be asked to upgrade when updating the other portableApps (unless a legit newer version comes out).
* Further improvements to overall system stability and other minor adjustments have been made to enhance the user experience.
