FileLocker 1.2.2.1

FileLocker 1.2.2.1 uses Inno Setup as the public Windows installer. The release produces a normal setup wizard, installs application binaries under Program Files, supports upgrades and uninstall through Windows Apps & Features, and keeps FileLocker user data under local app data.

Highlights

  • Added an Inno Setup installer script at installer\inno\FileLocker.iss.
  • Added scripts\Build-InnoInstaller.ps1 to restore, build, publish, package, and generate FileLocker-Setup-1.2.2.1.exe.sha256.
  • Updated scripts\Build-Installer.ps1 and the release gate to validate Inno installer artifacts instead of Velopack packages.
  • Removed Velopack from the runtime startup path and package references.
  • Updated the in-app updater to find FileLocker-Setup-{version}.exe assets on GitHub Releases, verify SHA-256, launch the installer helper, and let the installer replace installed files.
  • Kept local app data, settings, history, cleanup metadata, startup restore data, update downloads, logs, and WebView2 profile data outside Program Files.

Packaging Changes

  • Installer system: Inno Setup 6
  • Installer filename: FileLocker-Setup-1.2.2.1.exe
  • Installer checksum: FileLocker-Setup-1.2.2.1.exe.sha256
  • Default install location: {autopf}\FileLocker
  • Windows file version: 1.2.2.1
  • Main executable: FileLocker.exe
  • Build command: .\scripts\Build-InnoInstaller.ps1 -Configuration Release -RuntimeIdentifier win-x64

The generated installer, checksum sidecar, publish staging folder, logs, and other files under artifacts\ are release artifacts and should not be committed.

GitHub Release Notes

Upload these files from artifacts\inno to the GitHub release:

  • FileLocker-Setup-1.2.2.1.exe
  • FileLocker-Setup-1.2.2.1.exe.sha256

The in-app updater expects the installer asset to use the FileLocker-Setup-{version}.exe naming pattern and verifies the matching .sha256 sidecar when available.

Upgrade Notes

  • Fresh installs should use the Inno Setup installer from the GitHub release.
  • Upgrade installs should preserve user data because FileLocker stores settings, history, cleanup metadata, startup restore data, update logs, downloads, and WebView2 profile data under local app data.
  • Updating directly from an older NSIS or Velopack install should be manually smoke tested before publishing broadly.

Checksums

The package script writes a SHA-256 sidecar beside the installer. Publish the sidecar with the installer so update checks can verify the downloaded setup executable before launch.
