Changes

• Set a stable launcher AppUserModelID before creating windows; use a separate ID when invoked with --launch.
• Persist a unique AppUserModelID per game in generated .lnk files without changing target, arguments, description or selected icon.
• Set the matching launcher AppUserModelID on installer shortcuts.
• Prepare Beta 1.2 downloads and document how to update existing shortcuts/pins. Library data and Locale Emulator launch/admin behavior are unchanged.

Validation

• Windows integration harness exercises real shell32 APIs and reads saved .lnk properties through Explorer and WScript.
• Checks distinct game identities, stable IDs after rename/admin changes, shortcut replacement, and preserved launch properties.
• CI must pass regression tests, self-contained publishing, installer compilation and package checks before merge.

Manual follow-up

Verify the reported sequence in Explorer: open a game shortcut, close the game, then start VNAR.exe. Repeat with normal/admin profiles and existing/recreated shortcuts. Existing pinned launcher icons may need unpinning and repinning; no global icon-cache deletion is performed.
