SonKuPik K500 v1.1.6

SonKuPik K500 v1.1.6 — updater reliability patch: safeguarded rollback, preserved recovery snapshots and USB HID error guidance. Byte-identical from an owner-accepted prerelease.

Windows x64: download sonkupik-k500-setup.exe or sonkupik-k500-setup.zip.
The ZIP includes SonKuPik-K500-v1.1.6-Windows-Setup.exe. Both use the same verified Per-User installer, installed to %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\SonKuPik K500 without admin/UAC elevation.

The additional versioned -PerUser.exe release asset is necessary for the existing in-app auto-updater. Renaming it directly to -Setup.exe would be misidentified by older machine-scope clients. All EXE aliases are byte-identical to the approved v1.1.6-rc.1 RC; no Qt/Inno rebuild.

Existing machine-wide installations require separate explicit migration; this installer never silently escalates or uninstalls machine-wide software.
Unsigned open-source build; Windows SmartScreen may still display its normal publisher warning.

SonKuPik K500 v1.1.4-rc.3 — Updater RC

SonKuPik K500 v1.1.3

Public stable SonKuPik K500 v1.1.3.

The public native Smart Installer plus the scope-matched machine/per-user updater backends are the exact binary bytes accepted from v1.1.3-rc.6 at commit 2cfd0060d5c4d192d35347ce1ae34b250d98d7ff. Stable promotion did not rebuild them. The public download is the native scope-aware Smart Installer, and the two legacy asset names remain available for existing updater compatibility. No portable package is published for v1.1.3.

v1.1.3 rolls forward the accepted post-v1.1.0 preset, System UX, capture-backed protocol and offline-handoff corrections while preserving the proven updater lifecycle. Windows x64 + USB HID remains the hardware-qualified scope; Bluetooth SPP remains experimental.

Binaries are unsigned open-source builds. No UAC or Windows security bypass is used.
