- Recover an unplugged/replugged output sound card automatically (issue #5):
detect the dead WASAPI device and remember the receive-output selection so it
re-ticks and re-opens when the card returns.
- Adaptive per-card WASAPI buffer target sized to each card's pull chunk, held
stable so it never flits about under CPU/network load.
- Consolidate all per-user data (config, profiles, logs, sounds) into one
"user settings and logs" folder; migrate every older layout; exclude it from
the updater so custom cue sounds now survive updates.
- Mic-privacy detector: warn once when a Windows-blocked mic is switched on, or a
profile loads with one already on.
- All warning/notice dialogs now come to the foreground even when minimised.
- Apply volume + mute on profile load (were saved but not restored).
- Crash-safe (atomic) profile/config saves.
- Fix two resource leaks (push-mode capture MMDevice; UPnP DeviceFound handler).
- Remove dead code (baseline-diff machinery, dead ASIO probes, no-op stubs).
- Docs: readme.html, MANUAL.md, About-box changelog and release notes for v3.5.
