+## v1.3.1 - Localization and installer metadata hotfix
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Completed Simplified Chinese localization coverage for primary WPF views, dialogs, context menus, tooltips, tray menu text, status text, and user-facing service messages.
+- Changed Inno Setup display metadata so installed apps list ThreadPilot as `ThreadPilot` while keeping `1.3.1` in version metadata.
+- Added guarded cleanup for obsolete `ThreadPilot 0.1.0-beta` uninstall registry metadata only when it clearly matches the old ThreadPilot display name and Program Files install path.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Project, package, installer, Chocolatey, Sonar, and app manifest metadata updated to 1.3.1.
+- Full uninstall removes ThreadPilot-owned AppData/settings for the uninstalling user account and removes ThreadPilot startup entries; normal install/update preserves user data.
+
+### Safety
+
+- No automatic in-app updating was added.
+- No elevation, affinity, process control, power plan, or system tweak behavior was changed.
+

-# ThreadPilot v1.3.0 Release Notes Draft
+# ThreadPilot v1.3.1 Release Notes Draft
 
 ## Highlights
 
-- Added localization infrastructure with English and Simplified Chinese resources.
-- English remains the default language.
-- Simplified Chinese is available as an optional display language through Settings.
-- Selected user-facing notification messages now use localized resources.
-- Localization fallback behavior is covered by expanded tests.
+- Completed the Simplified Chinese localization pass for the main WPF views, dialogs, context menus, tray menu, tooltips, accessibility text, status text, and user-facing service notifications.
+- Kept English as the default startup language and Simplified Chinese as an optional Settings choice.
+- Changed installer display metadata so installed apps list ThreadPilot as `ThreadPilot` while preserving version metadata separately as `1.3.1`.
+- Improved uninstall cleanup for ThreadPilot-owned application files, shortcuts, startup entries, and per-user AppData/settings when the uninstaller runs.
 
-## Added
+## Fixed
 
-- Added localization infrastructure.
-- Added English and Simplified Chinese resource dictionaries.
-- Added language selector in Settings.
-- Added localized notification support for selected user-facing messages.
-- Added tests for localization fallback, language persistence, Settings language selection, and localized notifications.
+- Fixed incomplete zh-CN coverage that left many v1.3.0 UI surfaces in English.
+- Fixed Inno Setup `AppVerName` so uninstall tools do not show versioned names such as `ThreadPilot 1.3.1`.
+- Added guarded cleanup for the obsolete `ThreadPilot 0.1.0-beta` uninstall registry entry only when it exactly matches the legacy ThreadPilot display name and Program Files install location.
 
-## Changed
+## Safety
 
-- English remains the default application language.
-- Simplified Chinese is available as an optional display language.
-- Project version updated to 1.3.0.
+- No automatic in-app updater was added.
+- No elevation, affinity, process control, power plan, or system tweak behavior was changed.
+- Normal install/update preserves existing user settings and data.
+- Full uninstall removes only ThreadPilot-owned AppData for the uninstalling user account; elevated uninstall contexts may not be able to clean another Windows user's per-user AppData.
 
-## Safety
+## Testing
 
-- Unsupported or invalid language settings now fall back to English.
-- Missing translation keys fall back safely to English or the key.
-- No changes to elevation, system tweaks, affinity, or privileged operation behavior.
+- Added resource key parity coverage for `Locales/en-US.xaml` and `Locales/zh-CN.xaml`.
+- Added hardcoded-English checks for important WPF views with brand and technical terms whitelisted.
+- Added release metadata tests for installer display name, uninstall cleanup scope, legacy beta uninstall-entry cleanup, and v1.3.1 version surfaces.
 
 ## Compatibility and Upgrade Notes
 
 - Requires Windows 11 build 22000 or newer.
-- Existing settings continue to load.
-- Existing installations without a language setting default to English.
-- Existing process, affinity, power plan, and automation behavior is unchanged.
+- Existing settings, profiles, masks, persistent rules, imported power plans, and logs continue to load after update.
+- Existing process, affinity, power plan, automation, and system tweak behavior is unchanged.
 
 ## Known Non-Goals
 
+- No GitHub release or tag is created by this hotfix branch.
+- No automatic in-app updating.
 - No anti-cheat bypass.
 - No Windows Service.
 - No registry or IFEO persistence.
-- No generated release artifacts yet.
-- No GitHub release or tag yet.
-
-## Release Artifact Status
-
-- Installer, portable ZIP, checksums, package metadata verification, and release upload remain pending manual validation.
