The Offensive security team has done major changes with Kali Linux 2019.4, they have addressed some long-time issues. Here are some notable updates and bugs fixes.

New Desktop Environment and GTK3 Theme

With the update developers planned to address the performance issues, by removing overhead features that are not useful for a distribution like Kali and the fractured user experience, if you are using a high-end laptop or using a Raspberry Pi the user experience be same. Another thing is the modern look than the traditional one.

So to address the issues they committed a lightweight one that runs under all the levels of Kali installs and handles user requests without compromising user experience. If you don’t like the new UI, you can still have an option to witch with Gnome build.

Kali Undercover theme

The new Undercover theme which turns your Kali machine looks like a default Windows installation. This can be done by just typing kali-undercover in the terminal windows.

PowerShell

Another notable feature is the PowerShell repositories, with the new version you will get an ability to run the PowerShell scripts directly on Kali Linux.

BTRFS Snapshot

BTRFS is a much useful inclusion, if you are running the Kali Linux directly on the computer there is no easy to make a snapshot of it for restoration if something went wrong.

With BTRFS now you will be getting a snapshot capability on a bare metal install, while installing the kali itself a separate btrfs partition and btrfs subvolumes outside of the installation volumes.
