Fixes and polish for the taskbar bar and desktop widget.

Desktop widget

  • Dividers always show. They were drawn as a faint, smoothed 1-pixel line that could all but vanish; now they're crisp, visible on every theme, and kept even right before a group heading
  • New: Divider thickness (1–8 px) in Settings → Widget
  • More in the right-click menu: Theme, Size, Font, Background opacity and Placement, the same as the other Kinetik apps
  • Right-click menus close when you click elsewhere, the desktop included. They used to stay open

Updating

  • The built-in updater stages the new files, checks them, then swaps them in, and rolls back if anything fails. A half-finished update can no longer leave a broken exe, and its recovery files are kept
  • Same-version updates are compared by SHA-256, not just file size

Also

  • Closes cleanly when Kinetik Hub asks it to, so Hub can restart and update it without force-closing it
  • Safer settings: out-of-range values are backed up and corrected when the app starts, and settings that can't be read are never saved over
  • Default widget background opacity is 95%
  • build.bat keeps the exe it replaces in ..\Old Versions, and build.bat package checks every file in the release zip against its SHA-256 hash

SHA-256 of Kinetik.exe: 47DB02D0F55D5F30749726DA94DD9B629D4376FDFD0A5B5BC3FFC53691369BC4
