List Forge v2.0.1.0
===================

Installation:
1. Extract all files to your preferred location
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 manually check for updates by running 'check_update.ps1'
- 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
  3. Install the code signing certificate to Trusted Publishers (requires admin):
     - Double-click the certificate file in windows\certificates\code-seed-cert.pfx
     - Follow the wizard to install to "Trusted Publishers" store
     - Enter password: happyforging
  Note: The app uses a self-signed certificate for code signing. For production use,
  consider obtaining a certificate from a trusted Certificate Authority.

- All files in this folder are required for the application to run properly
- Do not delete the version.txt file as it's used for update checking
