Stability fixes:
- Many users were waiting for the ability to take screenshots in .jpeg format. Now you can do it! The ability to annotate screenshots with shapes, arrows, and lines is a nice touch. You can now also use the "Follow the mouse" mode to track your mouse cursor. Finally, many stability fixes were made and the "Do not show the Snipping Tool" feature is now working properly.
