- Tips for Windows Users:
- Please note that if you've turned on Windows Defender Smartscreen, you may need to click [more info] and then [still allow] to run it, or to click [run anyway] for Windows 8. The situation is here because we cannot afford to buy a signing certificate which costs [hundreds of dollars].
- If you are using Windows 7 and the application isn't working properly, please apply for the "Vista Compatibility Mode".

New in wnr 1.17.0 (Jul 22, 2020)
- If you are a Windows 8/8.1/10 user and have not turned off Windows Defender Smartscreen, you may need to click "More Information" -> "Allow Still" in the Smartscreen block box after opening the application to run wnr. The reason is simple: canceling this interception requires us to spend hundreds of dollars to purchase certificates.
- If you are a Windows 7 user, and you get a black screen of wnr when you use it, please turn on "Vista compatibility mode" for wnr (find the shortcut of wnr, find "Properties" in the right-click menu, and click "Compatibility" -> Select "Windows Vista" from the drop-down menu of "Compatibility Mode").
- If you are a macOS user, if the "cannot open app" warning appears, please follow this tutorial to open the app. The same reason is that the signing certificate is too expensive and unaffordable.

- Fixed issues, including a problem that may cause the end of time confirmation box to not be displayed.
