  • NuGet authentication for private NuGet feeds has been fixed (RIDER-18125).
  • The spell checker stops warning about non-English comments, GUIDs, NuGet package names, etc. (RIDER-19127).
  • The bug No connection string found was fixed in Entity Framework support (RIDER-19059).
  • The behavior of the setting Allow placement of caret after end of line has been fixed (RIDER-19088).
