* Fix a bug since v4.6 where certain Unix system directories were incorrectly
assumed to exist and resulted in
a :class:`FileNotFoundError`. (:issue:`[#6331](https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/6331)`)
Hooks
* Update ``sphinx`` hook for compatibility with latest version (4.2.0).
(:issue:`[#6330](https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/6330)`)
Bootloader
</code></pre>
<ul>
<li>(Windows) Explicitly set <code>NTDDI_VERSION=0x06010000</code> and
<code>_WIN32_WINNT=0x0601</code> when compiling Windows bootloaders to request
Windows 7 feature level for Windows headers. The windowed bootloader
requires at least Windows Vista feature level, and some toolchains
(e.g., mingw cross-compiler on linux) set too low level by default.
(:issue:<code>[#6338](https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/6338)</code>)</li>
<li>(Windows) Remove the check for the unused <code>windres</code> utility when compiling
with MinGW toolchain. (:issue:<code>[#6339](https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/6339)</code>)</li>
<li>Replace use of <code>PyRun_SimpleString</code> with <code>PyRun_SimpleStringFlags</code>.
(:issue:<code>[#6332](https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/6332)</code>)</li>
</ul>
<h2>4.6 (2021-10-29)</h2>
<p>Features</p>
<pre><code>
* Add support for Python 3.10. (:issue:`[#5693](https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/5693)`)
* (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.
