Bug-fix release.

Fixed

  • Chromium-family %LOCALAPPDATA% cleanup (#23). When ungoogled-chromium or Helium's chrome.exe is launched outside Nomad (most commonly a link click routed to the browser's own default-browser registration instead of the Nomad launcher), the browser writes a full default profile to %LOCALAPPDATA%\Chromium or %LOCALAPPDATA%\imput\Helium. These strays previously persisted indefinitely. Nomad now scrubs them on every Nomad-launched session, alongside the existing Gecko/Mullvad runtime-dir scrubs, so nothing accumulates outside the launcher's folder.

    To keep links from leaking in the first place, register the Nomad launcher (not the raw browser exe) as your default browser with Nomad-<Browser>.exe --register-default, then pick it in Settings → Default apps. The scrub cleans up whatever still gets through.
