Download QualityOfLifeModManagerSetup.exe for the normal Windows install.

Updating no longer loops. Asking to update, watching the progress bar
finish, and then being asked for the same version again was the app failing to
replace its own program file and not noticing. Windows will not overwrite a
running program, so a second copy of the manager — including one left behind
window-less by an earlier update — kept the write lock, the copy silently
failed, and the old build was started again.

  • The update now closes the app's other copies before the swap, and terminates
    any that will not close. Copies of the app running from somewhere else are
    left alone.
  • The swap is verified, retried while the file is locked, and written down in
    QualityOfLifeModManager.exe.update-log.txt. It is no longer possible for a
    failed update to report success.
  • The version is recorded only once the new build has actually started, so the
    settings file can no longer claim an update that never happened.
  • After two failed attempts at the same version the app says so — with Try
    again and a link to the download page — instead of offering it forever.

Sidebar. With the window made small, the last game in the list was drawn
with the bottom of its highlight sliced off. The nav column scrolls now rather
than being squeezed, and the window can go down to 640 px tall.

Carries the ReShade vault verifier and the Cinematic Colour Grading preset
from 2.1.5.
