Summary

  • add a pinned Windows GitHub Actions workflow that builds both modernized clients on pull requests and by manual dispatch
  • produce release-ready unsigned ZIPs with bundled art, documentation, provenance, and SHA-256 hashes
  • smoke-test both extracted applications from deep random paths and unrelated working directories
  • remove hardcoded Visual Studio installation paths and fix the v1 fixed-buffer path overflow found by the package test
  • include the external Common Controls manifest required by the v2.5 client and document the manual pre-release process

Validation

  • clean Release NMAKE builds completed for v1.0-pre-modern and v2.5-beta-1-modern
  • both packaged x86 applications created top-level windows and remained running through repeated 15-second tests from random paths containing spaces
  • package checks verified one top-level directory, required art and runtime files, the v2.5 manifest, and generated SHA-256 sums
