# Version 1.17.3
This version improves our extensibility tooling and adds multiple new translations to Medusa Admin.
CMS_BREAK -->
## Highlights
### API Routes compatible with Windows
An issue with path parsing on Windows for API Routes registration has been resolved (#5497).
### Custom batch jobs support in Admin activity drawer
Custom batch jobs can now be rendered in the activity drawer in Medusa Admin (#5288)
Use format `[entity]-[operation]` for your batch job type to render a human-readable activity title. For example, `product-import`.
### Translations
Vietnamese, Ukrainian, Tamil, Russian, and Hindi translations added to Medusa Admin.
### Removed `source-map-plugin` from `@medusajs/admin-ui`
Removed `source-map-plugin` to make Webpack more fault tolerant. The plugin would cause admin builds to throw if a dependency had no source maps (#5484)
