FindRomCover 3.1.0 — What's New

Fixes & Improvements

Automatic scan after selecting a folder — Browsing to your ROM or Image folder now scans automatically as soon as both folders are set. No more wondering why the list stays empty after using "Browse..." (#1)
Clear scan feedback — The status bar now reports how many ROM files matched the supported extensions and how many are missing covers. If nothing matches, you get an explicit message instead of a silently empty list. (#1)
Refresh after editing supported extensions — Changing the extension list (Settings > Edit Supported Extensions...) now re-scans immediately instead of showing stale results.
Repository migrated — The project now lives at purelogiccode/FindRomCover. The built-in update checker follows the new releases page.

Hardened settings loading: a corrupt settings.dat is quarantined as settings.dat.corrupt and defaults are restored instead of failing.
Added a managed PBKDF2 fallback so settings decryption no longer crashes on systems where the OS cryptographic implementation fails.
Friendlier Google Custom Search API error messages (invalid API key, quota exceeded, bad requests) instead of raw JSON dumps.
More robust link opening with an explorer.exe fallback for systems without a default browser association.
Version bumped to 3.1.0.

Both builds are framework-dependent and require the .NET 10.0 Desktop Runtime. Extract and run FindRomCover.exe.
