| ### Breaking Changes | ||
|
|
||
| ### Behavior Changed: menu bar will be hidden during fullscreen on Windows | ||
|
|
||
| This brings the behavior to parity with Linux. Prior behavior: Menu bar is still visible during fullscreen on Windows. New behavior: Menu bar is hidden during fullscreen on Windows. | ||
|
|
||
| **Correction**: This was previously listed as a breaking change in Electron 33, but was first released in Electron 34. | ||
|
|
||

||
| Electron 31.x.y has reached end-of-support as per the project's [support policy](https://www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/tutorial/electron-timelines#version-support-policy). Developers and applications are encouraged to upgrade to a newer version of Electron. | ||
