What's New in v1.8.1
This patch fixes the Windows self-updater, which could loop or stop before
finishing when the release zip had a top-level folder or the app was installed
in a protected location.🪟 Windows
- The updater now flattens a zip that contains a single top-level folder, so the
new build actually replaces the old one - If the install folder needs administrator rights, Windows now shows the UAC
prompt instead of failing silently - The update retries if a file is briefly locked, and logs failures to
%TEMP%\tapestry_update.log - The app relaunches in its install folder
🛠️ Technical Improvements
- Update paths are passed to the helper as JSON, not interpolated into the script
- Documented the Windows CMake cache reset after a rename
