- Improved the organization-wide management of the Batch Processing assistant. IT departments can now preset whether it includes hidden files and folders, which files and folders it leaves out, and how large a file may be, either fixed or as a default which users may change.
- Improved the organization-wide management of the app settings. IT departments can now also set whether AI Studio saves energy while the AI writes its answers, which helps on virtual desktops, for example.
- Improved attaching files to a chat. You can now attach any file that contains readable text, for example, program code or configuration files of a kind AI Studio did not know before.
- Improved adding a local data source when you have not configured an embedding provider yet. Until now, you only found out when saving the dialog, after filling in everything else. The data source settings now tell you right away and let you add an embedding provider right there, without losing what you entered.
- Changed the banner on the start page to a fresh design that shows what AI Studio can do today.
- Fixed a warning about the confidence level that stayed in the dialog for adding a local data source, even after you chose an embedding provider that meets it. The dialog now checks again whenever you change either of them, so a warning also appears when you switch to a provider that falls short.
- Fixed the list of data sources squeezing their names into a very narrow column when you opened it from a chat or from the background embeddings page, so the names were hard to read.

- Fixed data sources staying unavailable after the configuration of your organization changed their embedding provider, until one of their documents changed, or you restarted AI Studio. When AI Studio updates your data sources automatically, it now rebuilds their index right away.
- Fixed AI Studio deleting the index of a local data source when it could not reach its folder or file, for example, because the drive was not connected. Once the folder was back, AI Studio indexed everything again, which could take hours. AI Studio now keeps the index and tells you that it cannot reach the folder. The same applies to subfolders you are not allowed to open.
- Fixed AI Studio rebuilding the index of a data source from scratch without asking you when part of the index was missing on your computer. Since this sends every document to your embedding provider once more, AI Studio now tells you about the missing index and offers to repair the data source.
- Fixed saving a local data source whose embedding provider had been deleted, without choosing a new one. The dialog now asks you to select an embedding provider, so that AI Studio can prepare the data source again.
- Fixed justified texts being hyphenated by the rules of English even when AI Studio shows another language, such as German. Screen readers now also know which language AI Studio uses.
- Fixed the log file of AI Studio showing the wrong time for some entries when AI Studio was busy. Each entry now shows when it actually happened.
- Fixed AI Studio pausing for a moment while it opened the local index of a data source, such as a mailbox. Other work, for example applying the configuration of your organization, had to wait until then.
