1.2.0

🚀 Connor's PC Remote v1.2.0

What's New

🎁 WiX MSI Installer

The biggest change in this release is the migration from MSIX to a traditional MSI installer built with WiX Toolset v6.
Installation is now simple:

1. Download CPCRemote.msi
2. Run as Administrator
3. Done! The service is installed and started automatically.

💡 The MSI is GPO-compatible for enterprise deployment.
