List Forge v2.6.3.0
===================

Installation:
1. Extract all files to a folder of your choice. We recommend
   %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\ListForge (paste that into File Explorer's address bar).
   Avoid Documents, Desktop and Program Files: Windows' Ransomware protection or missing
   administrator rights can stop ListForge from updating itself there. If that happens,
   ListForge offers to move itself to the recommended folder when it updates.
2. Run list_forge.exe to start the application

Updating List Forge:
- The app will automatically check for updates when it starts
- You can also check manually from the About screen
- When an update is available, you'll be prompted to install it

Troubleshooting:
- If you see errors about missing DLL files (like VCRUNTIME140_1.dll), you may need to install the Visual C++ Redistributable:
  Download from: https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x64.exe

Smart App Control (Windows 11):
- If Windows 11 Smart App Control blocks the app, you have a few options:
  1. Click "More info" and then "Run anyway" when Windows shows the warning
  2. Add the app to Smart App Control exceptions:
     - Open Windows Security (Settings > Privacy & Security > Windows Security)
     - Go to App & browser control > Smart App Control
     - Click "Add exclusion" and select the list_forge.exe file

- All files in this folder are required for the application to run properly
