The Better Windows Desktop Upgrade

This release is all about making the Windows desktop experience more reliable, more polished, and smoother to operate—especially when you’re offline. 🎉

Highlights

Offline-ready Windows installers 📦

Windows desktop installers now bundle all registry-pinned native modules (and their extracted DLLs) directly into the installer, so key features don’t depend on a first-run download. Module resolution now prefers the read-only installer bundle before user cache or network, and the Windows checks/smoke steps were updated to verify offline module loading end-to-end.

Sharper Windows window controls & cleaner shutdown 🪟

Windows gets a more compact first-launch window and improved custom window controls (minimize, maximize/restore, close), with the drag strip staying available during boot and error screens. Shutdown behavior is also fixed so closing properly exits both the desktop host and embedded core (including support for the app_quit IPC command), plus the dev launcher was simplified with earlier architecture mismatch detection.
