What's new:
- Improved: The singleton pattern was changed and the program can be now executed in multiple instances on different user accounts. This resolves the problem with the Fast User Switching and Remote Desktop Connection.
- Improved: The size of the program was reduced (20%) and the internal encryption algorithm was also changed to improve the execution speed of the program.
- Improved: The search algorithm of executable files was improved to increase the searching speed of executable files in a folder.

Installation Notes
If you use the updater, please run the new exe file with administrative privileges when you execute it for the first time. Otherwise, due to a bug in the previous version, it will look like it started normally in the system tray, but, the service is not updated. If you plan a clean install, ignore this. Thank you for your understanding.
