# 🎉 Greenshot v1.3.290 RC1 Released — Fixed Vulnerability, Zoom, improved HiDPI awareness & More!
We're excited to announce the release of **Greenshot v1.3.290 (Final Release)** a significant step forward for one of the most popular open-source screenshot tools for Windows.
This version introduces **new features**, **UI improvements**, and **important bug fixes** that refine the overall user experience.
## 🛠 Fixed Vulerability Issue
Greenshot 1.2.10 and below allowed arbitrary code execution because .NET content is insecurely deserialized when a .greenshot file is opened.
This long awaited fix has already been provided in unstable versions and now found it's way into the final release of version 1.3.
## 🔍 Zooming In on Productivity
One of the most requested features is finally here:
**Zoom functionality in the editor** Easily zoom in and out using **CTRL + mouse wheel**, allowing for better precision when editing screenshots.
## 🛠 Fixes That Matter
This release also tackles several issues that have affected usability and stability:
- 🔧 **Improved DPI awareness**: Interface elements like handles and containers now scale correctly on high-resolution displays.
- ✨ **Dynamic filename placeholder for random alphanumerics** Ensures more flexibility and security when saving screenshots.
- 🧾 Fixed Unicode rendering in the editor for better multilingual support.
- 🐧 Improved Wine compatibility for Linux/WSL users.
- 📨 Fixed MAPI detection for email integrations.
- 🧹 Removed embedded browser component to reduce dependencies and potential security issues.
- ✍️ Improved object scaling behavior when using the Shift key.
- 🔁 Fixed duplicated shapes (ellipses, highlights) in the editor.
- 💬 Resolved text rendering problems inside callout containers.
## 🌍 Languages & Clean Code
- Several translations updated (English, Italian, Czech, Japanese, Traditional Chinese, and more).
- Major internal code cleanup to support long-term maintainability and performance.
## ✅ Final Thoughts
Greenshot v1.3.290 RC1 is a robust, more polished version that lays the groundwork for future development.
Whether youre a power user or a casual screenshot taker, this release offers **more control, sharper performance, and cleaner usability**.
