* (macOS) App bundles built in ``onedir`` mode can now opt-in for :ref:`argv
emulation <macos event forwarding and argv emulation>` so that file paths
passed from the UI (`Open with...`) are reflected in :data:`sys.argv`.
(:issue:`[#5908](https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/5908)`)
* (macOS) App bundles built in ``onedir`` mode can now opt-in for :ref:`argv
emulation <macos event forwarding and argv emulation>` so that file paths
received in initial drag & drop event are reflected in :data:`sys.argv`.
(:issue:`[#5436](https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/5436)`)
* (macOS) The :ref:`argv emulation <macos event forwarding and argv emulation>`
functionality is now available as an optional feature for app bundles
built in either ``onefile`` or ``onedir`` mode. (:issue:`[#6089](https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/6089)`)
* (Windows) Embed the manifest into generated ``onedir`` executables by
default, in order to avoid potential issues when user renames the executable
(e.g., the manifest not being found anymore due to activation context
caching when user renames the executable and attempts to run it before
also renaming the manifest file). The old behavior of generating the
external manifest file in ``onedir`` mode can be re-enabled using the
:option:`--no-embed-manifest` command-line switch, or via the
``embed_manifest=False`` argument to ``EXE()`` in the .spec file.
(:issue:`[#6223](https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/6223)`)
* (Wine) Prevent collection of Wine built-in DLLs (in either PE-converted or
fake/placeholder form) when building a Windows frozen application under
Wine. Display a warning for each excluded Wine built-in DLL. (:issue:`[#6149](https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/6149)`)
* Add a :mod:`PyInstaller.isolated` submodule as a safer replacement to
:func:`PyInstaller.utils.hooks.exec_statement`. (:issue:`[#6052](https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/6052)`)
* Improve matching of UPX exclude patterns to include OS-default case
sensitivity,
the wildcard operator (``*``), and support for parent directories in the
pattern.
Enables use of patterns like ``"Qt*.dll"`` and ``"PySide2*.pyd"``.
(:issue:`[#6161](https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/6161)`)
* Make the error handing of :func:`~PyInstaller.utils.hooks.collect_submodules`
configurable. (:issue:`[#6052](https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/6052)`)
Bugfix
* (macOS) Fix potential loss of Apple Events during ``onefile`` app bundle
start-up, when the child process is not yet ready to receive events
forwarded by the parent process. (:issue:`[#6089](https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/6089)`)
* (Windows) Remove the attempt to load the manifest of a ``onefile``
frozen executable via the activation context, which fails with *An
attempt to set the process default activation context failed because
