TikMan v1.10.27
New: "Check now" button in Settings
Until now, the update check only ran at startup. Settings › General now has a "Check now" button next to the update option that shows the result directly:
- Up to date: "Up to date (version X.Y)" (green)
- New version found: "Version X.Y 'Release Name' available" (orange) plus an "Update & restart" button that downloads immediately and replaces the running version in place
- Failed (offline / no matching package): "Check failed"
The startup check and the settings button share the same code (download → start new version → delete old one), including the already-hardened URL/filename validation. New strings in all 7 languages.
No signature/checksum check: A key or hash that lives on the same GitHub can be tampered with by the same attacker as the exe — it wouldn't improve security, only add complexity. Can be added later if there's a real need.
