With the kind assistance of user Finnick it has been proven that Windows Mixed Reality (WMR) headsets are compatible with the game! Since I have no such headsets, there was no official support.
According to his statement, however, a play area must be determined. With unlimited play area, problems with buttons can occur.
I also added a new info board with the current version number. The button takes you directly to the corresponding Release Notes.
Additional Bugfixes

After loading a game, the correct language setting will be loaded.
Thanks again for your support so far! If you notice bugs, let me know, so I have a chance to find them.

I hope you are having a good time with the game! To keep things fresh and exciting, I introduce you today to a new feature.
From now on it gets a little sneakier in your shop! Some customers turn into thieves who try to steal your hard-earned money! When they see money within their reach you will see an animation and a red outline for the money they have in their sight. Their malicious attempt was successful when the animation ends. You have some options to deal with this:

When you look at a thief, he will retract his little hands as if nothing happened! Only to retry his theft when you look away again.
Throw an item at him and see him run for his life!
Be quick enough to serve him to earn cash and make the best out of the situation.
Keep an eye on him all the time and wait until the timer runs out.
There are a bunch of other changes that I will post about tomorrow. Until then, have fun and please post any feedback on how the update goes for you!

Hello Shopkeepers!
First of all I would like to say a big THANK YOU for supporting the game by buying it! You are helping us to create new updates and develop new and interesting products!
Unfortunately, after the release a few bugs presented themselves that we fixed as quickly as possible. Because we want to communicate transparently with our customers, we assembled a short list with the fixed problems:

Reordered items could not be sold to customers.
Sometimes the hand was stuck in pointer mode and could only be switched to grabbing mode my interacting with the notebook.
Sometimes new equipment could be bought although you did not have enough money
The amount of visible money bundles differed strongly from the available money. By the way, the amount of visible money is only a approximation to the available money
Keep having fun selling!
