+ audio endpoints.

+ - Bluetooth muting description
+
+## 2.2.0 - 2022-11-28
+
+### Removed
+

+ of current games (e.g. Overwatch 2, Darktide).

+
+### Changed
+ - Bluetooth detection logic: Muting the workstation doesn't happen,
+ when scanning for new devices.

+
+## 2.1.1 (2022-08-03)
+
+### Added
+

+ when a bluetooth device reconnects. This should prevent
+ music blasting out of your pc, when the device is connected,
+ but the audio endpoint has not been changed yet.
+
+### Changed
+
+ - Improved UI when WLAN or Bluetooth is not available
+ - Integrated Bluetooth muting into overall mute logic, so that
+ the workstation is not unmuted, when it is locked but an audio
+ Bluetooth device reconnects.
+
+## 2.1.0 - 2022-08-02
+
+### Added
+
+ - New feature to mute workstation when an bluetooth audio device
+ disconnects (and re-enable audio if it reconnects)

+ - Fixed some spelling errors
+
+## 2.0.0 - 2022-05-01

+ option is set.
+ - WinMute can now mute your computer when it is connected (alternatively
+ when it is _not_ connected) to a particular wireless network.
+ - Detection for display standby
+ - Detection for RDP sessions
+ - Autostart option (no more fiddling with the Startup-folder)
+ - Hi-DPI awareness
+ - Tray icon for bright system theme
+
+### Changed
+
+ - Reworked mute detection logic. This should fix timing errors, e.g. when
+ screensaver with screenlock is active.
+ - UI Rework (New settings and about dialogue)
+ - Updated project to VS 2022
+
+### Fixed
+
+ - Various fixes and improvements
+

+
+ - "Quiet Hours": A time frame where WinMute automatically mutes and afterwards
+ unmutes your workstation.
+ - Added proxy process to recognize screensaver startup when the current
+ foreground application is a 32-bit application
+
+### Removed
+
+ - 32-bit build.
+
+## 1.5.0 - 2020-06-29
+
+### Added
+
+ - Mute on suspend, shutdown and logout.
+ Automatic audio-restore is disabled for these events.
+
+## 1.4.6 - 2020-04-24
+
+### Added
+
+ * "Support"-Link to About dialog
+
+### Changed
+
+ - Compiled with spectre migitations... just 'cause
+ - Small menu redesign.
+
+## 1.4.5 (2019-09-04)
+
+### Changed
+
+ - Upgraded compiler toolset to VS2019
+
+### Fixed
+
+ - Crash when all audio endpoints are removed while the program is running
+ (might happen, when connecting to your PC via RDP).
+
+## 1.4.4 - 2017-08-14
+
+### Added
+
+ - New, simpler icon
+ - System notification area icon is now white, to fit better with with windows'
+ default icons
+
+### Changed
+
+ - Upgraded compiler toolset to VS2017
+
+## 1.4.3 - 2016-08-11
+
+### Changed
+
+ - Upgraded to new compiler toolset
+ - Use more modern UI elements
+
+### Removed
+
+ - Removed Windows XP as I can also no longer test it.
+
+## 1.4.1/1.4.2 - 2014-07-17
+
+### Fixed
+
+ * Screensaver muting: It sometimes happened that WinMute
+ muted Windows Audio for no apparent reason and "forgot" to
+ unmute. This is now fixed.
+
+## 1.4 (2014-07-10)
+
+### Added
+
+ - WinMute can now also mute if the screensaver starts due to windows
+ restrictions, unmuting the audio can take up to one second after the
+ screensaver resumes.
+ - Toggle switch to configure if WinMute should unmute at all after
+ a workstation lock or a screensaver run
+
+## 1.3 (2012-02-23)
+
+### Fixed
+
+ - Right-click menu is now correctly dismissed if the user clicks somewhere
+ outside of the menu.
+ - Vista/7/8: Correctly mute the new device, if the default audio endpoint
+ changes.
+ - XP: Greatly improved hardware detection code. WinMute now mutes all devices,
+ instead of just setting the volume of the first device it finds to zero.
+ If the Mute-Button is locked via Group Policies, WinMute will try to
+ use the Volume Slider to "emulate" sound muting.
+
+### Changed
+
+ - Embedded Visual C++ 2010 DLLs. This increases file size by about 100kb, but
+ enables the usage of this tool in workplaces that do not have deployed the
+ Visual C++ 2010 Runtime Environment yet.
+ - XP: Actively tries to prevent other programs from unmuting the system.
+
+## 1.2 - 2011-05-30
+
+### Fixed
+
+ - WinMute could malfunction if the audio device was changed or
+ disconnected during a windows session.
+
+## 0.0 - 1.1
+
+### Added
+
+ * Everything. Unfortunately I did not keep changelogs.
