2.Since the third-party web browser plugin currently in use is outdated, it has been replaced with a maintained one (Currently EX Studio only). However, the following limitations apply:

  • Windows 32-bit systems are not supported.

  • On macOS, it still runs via Rosetta, so the initial loading time will be long (expected to be resolved in a future update).
