Fixes for a fresh install on a new PC.

  • The screen saver plays on a new PC. The copy of Win4KSS that Windows runs from System32 now hands off to the installed app, so a firewall that allowed Win4KSS can no longer block the screen saver's streaming. Before this, a new PC could show only a black screen.
  • Start now (and Ctrl+Alt+S) always starts the screen saver, even when Win4KSS isn't set as the Windows screen saver. If "On resume, display logon screen" is on, it still locks when you come back.
  • No more silent black screen. If no video can load, the screen saver says so.
  • Hover previews work out of the box. ffmpeg now ships with Win4KSS.
  • Nothing to install by hand. If the .NET 10 Desktop Runtime or the WebView2 Runtime is missing, Setup downloads and installs it.
  • The app icon shows in Start, search, and Settings → Apps.
