This release has new Smart Taskbar features and several bug fixes.
Release notes for previous releases:
Setup will upgrade your existing installation and preserve your settings and registration information. You don't need to uninstall your current installation of UltraMon first.
UltraMon 3 requires Windows 2000/XP or later, Windows 98/Me are no longer supported.
Please note that configuration settings may not be preserved when upgrading from version 2.6 or earlier. Display profiles, shortcuts and wallpapers will be preserved.
New taskbar configuration options: options such as always on top, autohide or locked can again be configured per taskbar if desired, default is to use the same settings as the main taskbar. Taskbars for a specific monitor can be disabled via UltraMon Options > Smart Taskbar > More options.
Window management: cascading and tiling all windows or only those on a specific monitor, as well as Show Desktop for the whole desktop or a specific monitor, can be done via the main UltraMon menu and the right-click menu of UltraMon taskbars
Task Manager option on UltraMon taskbars: an option to open the Task Manager has been added to the right-click menu of UltraMon taskbars
