Big release and changes today, JDK 25 enforcement and the groundwork for some big changes going forward with automation in mind and some big tool speed and memory improvements to be rolled out over coming weeks Due to the size of this release we recommend organisations do a backup before upgrade - New JPDFium repository enhancement for 'merge' and 'split' tools to allow up to 99% less memory consumption on merges and splits (Special thanks to PDFium and EmbedPDF for this, Please check out EmbedPDF and [donate](https://github.com/sponsors/embedpdf) to them, great project for the future of PDF for OSS) - Forced JDK 25 for improved memory efficiency and compatibility issues - Introduced Stirling.com code into OSS repo to make it source viewable and allow us to return stirling.com to the old UI (Coming very soon!) - New folder system for file storage with a "my files" UI. Customisable folders and storage for server! (must be enabled in settings) - Desktop multi-window support - Desktop auto updater (WIP) - Performance/cache improvements for browser - OAuth2 / OIDC diagnostic logging flag - Landscape page-size options Bug fixes - Fixed font loss in Rearrange / Over

This release is a preview of a new UI we're working on to make file management and selection feel less clunky. Since V2 launched, Many people have mentioned the "forced file management" feeling, and this is our attempt to address it. The new layout puts files on the left and tools on the right. Please give it a bit of time before deciding how you feel about it, and share your feedback and suggestions in the discord! This is a work in progress, and we welcome feedback on it! <img width="2850" height="1630" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/63d8a5d3-63df-4143-99f0-662dc57123c1" /> <img width="1922" height="1726" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/c283aa50-c8a0-4c73-a79d-3ad9e93c66fd" /> <img width="1414" height="1366" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/90032633-af26-4533-a9d8-38719a1a471d" /> ## What's Changed ### Bug Fixes * Fix Task commands in Powershell by @jbrunton96 in https://github.com/Stirling-Tools/Stirling-PDF/pull/6330 * fix: replace deprecated payload too large status by @Ludy87 in https://github.com/Stirling-Tools/Stirling-PDF/pull/6336 * Fix desktop app overscrolling inappro
