# New Functionality and Changes Introduced with Xpress Workbench 3.6.x

This section describes the new features and changes introduced with Xpress Workbench 3.6.1 and 3.6.2.

Xpress Workbench version 3.6.2 includes the following new features, fixed and known issues:

New Feature in this release: Upgraded some third-party dependencies

Fixed in this release: Issue where Workbench can crash on macOS 12 (Monterey).

Known Issues this release:

- (Desktop, macOS) There have been rare instances where, on publishing a new app to Insight 5, an app with a long path name (usually stored deep in folder hierarchy) can fail to publish. As a workaround, build the app into a zip file, and upload it to Insight manually (via the Upload App button on the homepage); then when publishing from Workbench, select the new app from the list (rather than "Create new app"). Subsequent publishes to the existing app should not have this problem. This will be addressed in a future release.

- (Desktop, macOS 12.x Monterey) There have been reports of a very rare behaviour where, on first opening a project after installing the latest version of Workbench, it gets stuck on the project loading screen. We have found that rebooting after installation remedies this issue.

Xpress Workbench version 3.6.1 includes the following fix:

Fixed in this release: (DMP) Issue where upgrading from pre-3.6 components left users with just read-only access to file system.
