We are happy to announce that Cordova Windows 4.4.3 has been released!

This release fixes some major issues with application activation, splashscreen and VS project generation.
See release notes below for more detals and the rest of the changes.

Cordova CLI starting from version 6.3.0 will automatically start using this version of cordova-windows when creating new projects.

To upgrade:

npm install -g cordova
cd my_project
cordova platform update windows@4.4.3

To add it explicitly:

cordova platform add windows@4.4.3
