What's Changed

Features

• Added detecting of all installed files for Msiexec uninstallers by @Klocman in https://github.com/Klocman/Bulk-Crap-Uninstaller/pull/858
  • Installation locations are now detected for more applications with Msiexec uninstallers - thanks to this there's less duplicate "orphaned" entries
  • There's more executables listed in the Run menu, including ones outside of the install directory
  • May impact startup time by at most a few seconds
  • Not used for junk detection yet
• Added a proper ResultWin32 enum with (almost) all Windows error codes and better error message handling
  • Some errors will have much better error messages now.
• Added special error handling for crashes caused by outdated Win7 (now shows a messagebox with explanation)
