### Installer (Inno Setup)
Script: `installer/EbbesMemeClipboard.iss` (tracked; `installer/output/` is gitignored).
Inno Setup 6 installs **per-user** to `%LocalAppData%\Programs\Inno Setup 6\`, not Program
Files — that tripped up the first attempt to locate `ISCC.exe`.
- Per-user install by default (no UAC), with a wizard page letting the user pick
"just me" vs "all users" (`PrivilegesRequired=lowest` +
`PrivilegesRequiredOverridesAllowed=dialog`).
- Optional unchecked tasks: desktop icon, start-with-Windows.
- **Don't double-compress.** Publishing with `EnableCompressionInSingleFile=false` and
letting Inno's LZMA2 do the work gives a ~51 MB setup vs ~70 MB, and the installed app
starts faster because there's no decompression at launch.
- **Uninstall only removes the autostart entry if it points at the installed copy.** The
app's own Settings toggle writes the same `Run` value name, so an unconditional delete
would wipe out a portable build's autostart. This was a real bug caught in testing.
- User data under `%AppData%\EbbesMemeClipboard` is deliberately preserved on uninstall;
only the re-downloadable `GifCache` is removed.
- Verified end-to-end: silent install → files/shortcut/uninstall-entry present → app runs →
silent uninstall → everything removed, user data and unrelated autostart intact.
- An installer does **not** fix SmartScreen warnings; only code signing does.

; Leaving .NET's own single-file compression off lets Inno's LZMA2 compress the raw bytes
; instead, which it does far better: ~51 MB setup vs ~70 MB when double-compressing. The
; installed exe is larger on disk (172 MB vs 75 MB) but starts faster, since there's no
; decompression on launch. The separate publish\ folder keeps the compressed build for
; anyone who just wants the portable single exe.
