Summary

Follow-up to #12. The README's "Renewals Silently Failing" callout and the matching docs/troubleshooting.md section both still said the repair script will prompt for the acme-dns /register password. With the auto-recovery added in #12 that's no longer the default path — running as the same admin that originally registered the domain unwraps the password from the existing DPAPI blob automatically. The docs also didn't mention the new ARI cache cleanup or the interactive renewal prompt.

This PR is doc-only:

  • README.md – drop the "will prompt" wording; note the auto-recovery precondition (run as the original user), the ARI cleanup, and the renewal prompt; simplify the example (no longer needs a separate wacs.exe --renew invocation after the script).
  • docs/troubleshooting.md – same description update, plus an unattended-mode example using -Password + -RunRenewal Yes.

No code changes.
