* build: configure the Windows MSI installer in the Compose windows block (#61) Add the jpackage/WiX options for a per-user MSI next to the existing icon: a fixed upgradeUuid so Windows Installer replaces an installed KST4Contest instead of installing side by side, a Start menu group and desktop shortcut, no UAC prompt, and a directory chooser. The portable ZIP (createDistributable) is unaffected; the MSI is produced only by the tagged-release workflow. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> * ci: build and attach a Windows MSI installer for tagged releases (#61) The Windows job of tagged-release.yml now runs packageMsi after the portable ZIP, renames the result to KST4Contest-<tag>-windows-x64.msi (consistent with the other platforms; the ZIP keeps its praktiKST name) and uploads it as the windows-msi artifact, which the release job downloads and attaches next to the ZIP. The nightly workflow stays ZIP-only because a nightly MSI would always carry the same version. The website download data (downloads.js, beta.js) gets an MSI card that is shown only when the release actually has that asset, so the page never links to a file that does not exist for an older release. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: describe the Windows MSI installer next to the portable ZIP (#61) The German and English installation manuals list the MSI in the package table, describe both Windows forms (installer: per user, Start menu entry, desktop shortcut, chosen directory, in-place upgrade, removal via the Windows apps list; ZIP: portable) and the shared data directory %USERPROFILE%\.praktiKST, and add the MSI path to the Windows update section. Changelog entries for v1.50 and a note in PROJECT_CONTEXT.md record the fixed upgrade UUID and the tags-only decision. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> * ci: build the Windows MSI for stable tags only (#61) A beta MSI would carry the same composePackageVersion as the following stable release. jpackage's MSI upgrade table only accepts strictly higher versions, so Windows Installer would refuse the stable over an installed beta and the tester would have to uninstall first. Betas therefore stay ZIP-only like nightlies; the build, upload and download steps are skipped for beta- tags, and the release action tolerates the missing asset path. Manual, changelog and project context say so. Raised by the Codex review on #111.

|

- **Switching profiles while running:** **File > Switch operator profile...** closes the connection and rebuilds the user interface with the settings of the selected profile, without restarting the program.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Windows installer:** next to the portable ZIP package, stable releases now also ship an MSI installer for Windows (`KST4Contest-v<version>-windows-x64.msi`). It installs KST4Contest for the current user account without administrator rights, adds a Start menu entry and a desktop shortcut, and replaces the existing installation on an update. Settings and database stay under `%USERPROFILE%\.praktiKST` and are shared with a portable copy. This implements the first stage of [Issue #61](https://github.com/praktimarc/kst4contest/issues/61).

### Changed
|
||||
|
||||
- **The terrain profile cache is separate:** computed terrain profiles now live in their own shared file `terrainprofilecache.db` and are stored per owner. Previously the whole cache was dropped whenever the callsign or locator changed, which would have discarded every computed profile on each profile switch.
