Summary

This knowledge base article provides access to hotfixes for the specific General Distribution Release (GDR) of Browsium Ion listed in the Applies To section above. Each public release of Ion is considered a GDR and is eligible for hotfixes until the end of its support lifecycle. See the Ion Support Lifecycle KB for details on the support dates for each release of Ion.

A hotfix is a Limited Distribution Release (LDR) provided to specific customers for specific issues, which could be new features or bug fixes. Hotfixes are complete releases of Ion (both Browsium Client and Ion Configuration Manager) and are cumulative, with each successive hotfix containing all the changes from the previous hotfixes.
