systemPreferences color scheme events removed, use nativeTheme.updated
The following `systemPreferences` events have been removed: `inverted-color-scheme-changed` and `high-contrast-color-scheme-changed`. Use the new `updated` event on the `nativeTheme` module instead: `nativeTheme.on('updated', () => { ... })`.
systemPreferences appearance methods removed, use nativeTheme
The following `systemPreferences` methods and properties have been removed: `systemPreferences.getAppLevelAppearance()`, `systemPreferences.setAppLevelAppearance()`, and `systemPreferences.appLevelAppearance`. Use the `nativeTheme` module instead: `nativeTheme.shouldUseDarkColors` and `nativeTheme.themeSource`.
systemPreferences.getColor alternate-selected-control-text removed
The `alternate-selected-control-text` value for `systemPreferences.getColor` has been removed. Use `selected-content-background` instead.
desktopCapturer.getSources moved to main process only
The `desktopCapturer.getSources` API is now only available in the main process, not in the renderer. This change improves the default security of Electron apps. In the main process, use `ipcMain.handle` to expose it via IPC to the renderer.
desktopCapturer.getSources example with IPC
Example of exposing desktopCapturer.getSources via IPC: In main process: `ipcMain.handle('DESKTOP_CAPTURER_GET_SOURCES', (event, opts) => desktopCapturer.getSources(opts))`. In renderer process: `const desktopCapturer = { getSources: (opts) => ipcRenderer.invoke('DESKTOP_CAPTURER_GET_SOURCES', opts) }`.
shell.moveItemToTrash removed, use shell.trashItem
The deprecated synchronous `shell.moveItemToTrash()` API has been removed. Use the asynchronous `shell.trashItem(path).then(/* ... */)` instead.
systemPreferences dark mode methods removed, use nativeTheme
The following `systemPreferences` methods have been removed: `isDarkMode()`, `isInvertedColorScheme()`, `isHighContrastColorScheme()`. Use the corresponding `nativeTheme` properties instead: `shouldUseDarkColors`, `shouldUseInvertedColorScheme`, `shouldUseHighContrastColors`.
shell.openItem replaced with shell.openPath
The `shell.openItem()` API has been replaced with an asynchronous `shell.openPath()` API.
powerMonitor.querySystemIdleState replaced with getSystemIdleState
The `powerMonitor.querySystemIdleState(threshold, callback)` API has been replaced with synchronous `powerMonitor.getSystemIdleState(threshold)` that returns the idle state directly.
powerMonitor.querySystemIdleTime replaced with getSystemIdleTime
The `powerMonitor.querySystemIdleTime(callback)` API has been replaced with synchronous `powerMonitor.getSystemIdleTime()` that returns the idle time directly.
