Explorer integration — much faster folder browsing
Browsing folders of camera RAW (NEF/CR2/…) or FITS in Explorer, with an astro
column shown (focal length, exposure, dimensions…), is dramatically smoother.
- No more scroll stutter — the property handler now reads only the small metadata header it needs (a couple of MB for a RAW's EXIF) instead of up to 32 MB per file, so scrolling a folder of RAWs no longer freezes.
- Instant on revisit — the parsed metadata is cached, so leaving a folder and coming back (or adding a column) fills the columns immediately instead of re-reading every file.
Measurement columns (HFR/stars/stats) are unchanged — they're filled from the cache the viewer populates when you open a file.
Verified against a folder of ~200 NEFs. No behaviour change to measurements or rendering.
Install: download WinStellarSetup-0.6.10.exe below and run it. Windows SmartScreen may warn on first run (the installer is not yet code-signed). You can verify the download against SHA256SUMS.txt.
