We are happy to announce that `Cordova Windows 4.3.1` has been released!

This is a patch release which fixes a couple of small bugs related to plugins installation, and the significant issue that caused Windows 10 Universal apps to restart instead of resume in some cases.

To upgrade:

    npm install -g cordova
    cd my_project
    cordova platform update windows@4.3.1

To add it explicitly:

    cordova platform add windows@4.3.1

For non-CLI projects or for pre-3.0 projects, refer to the [upgrade guide](http://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/dev/guide/platforms/win8/upgrade.html).
