# 1.4.0

ReleasedReleased on December 18, 2017

**Features:**

-   There is now a Search Bar in the Desktop GUI that enables you to filter the list of specs. Helpful for projects with a ton of spec files. Fixes [#1098](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/1098).
    

**Bugfixes:**

-   The seeded `example_spec.js` file no longer fails in Windows on the [cy.exec()](/api/commands/exec) test. It now conditionally runs a command appropriate for Windows. Fixes [#1097](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/1097).
    
-   Trying to log in to Cypress no longer causes the app to crash. This area has had many more tests added. Fixes [#1093](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/1093).
    
-   Some minor improvements to TypeScript definitions around [.then()](/api/commands/then). Fixes [#1084](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/1084).
    
-   The Selector Playground now works correctly in the Electron browser. Fixes [#1086](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/1086).
