The self-contained ZIPs hold a single NativeAOT executable: no .NET runtime to install, nothing else to copy.
The framework-dependent ZIPs hold the executable together with the application's assemblies and run on the .NET 10 runtime installed on the machine, so they pick up its servicing updates.
The executables are not code-signed, so Windows SmartScreen may ask before the first start.
The Android packages are signed with the Broiler release key.
