Unreleased

1.0.3 - 2026-05-17

Changed

• Update check no longer interrupts startup with an interactive prompt. If a newer release is available, a quiet right-aligned update available (vX.Y.Z) hint is printed in dim grey directly under the banner — no key press required.

1.0.2 - 2026-05-17

Fixed

• Suppress netsh output to avoid mojibake on non-UTF-8 consoles (Russian Windows printed ╤Г╨╢╨╡ ╨▓╨║╨╗╤О╤З╨╡╨╜╨╛... because netsh emits in the OEM code page). Our own English status lines remain; the post-change Get-NetIPAddress block already prints Unicode.

1.0.1 - 2026-05-17

Changed

• Dropped the made by engelgardt line from the startup banner — keep author credit in the README only.

Added

• Embedded application icon in the exe (via ps2exe -iconFile assets/icon.ico).

1.0.0 - 2026-05-16

Added

• First public release on GitHub.
• Portable .exe (~30 KB) built from PowerShell via ps2exe.
• Self-elevation through UAC.
• Physical wired NIC filter — Wi-Fi, VPN, virtual, Hyper-V, VMware, VirtualBox, TAP/TUN, WireGuard, OpenVPN, Tailscale, ZeroTier, Bluetooth, Loopback and WAN Miniport adapters are hidden from the picker.
• Two modes: Static (default 10.10.10.1/24, optional gateway) and DHCP.
• Current IPv4 configuration is printed after the change.
• Auto-update check on startup: polls GitHub /releases/latest with a 3-second timeout and offers to open the download page if a newer version exists. Silent on offline / API errors.
• MIT licensed.
