One RIOJoy-<ver>.zip now deploys on both OS generations (~75 MB with the
offline XP prerequisites):
- Layout: RIOJoy\app (net48 x64) + RIOJoy\app-xp (net40 x86) +
RIOJoy\vendor (ViGEmBus; vendor\xp: .NET 4.0 offline installer +
KB2468871, both signature-verified; RioGamepadXP driver slots in when
8B lands - build warns/skips until then).
- RIOJoy\install-core.bat: shared OS-detecting install logic (ver ->
5.1 = XP); pure cmd.exe on the XP path, delegates to install-rio.ps1
on 10/11. Exports RIOJOY_APPDIR for shortcut creation.
- postinstall.bat (TeslaConsole, unattended): elevates, runs the core,
then deletes install.bat + README.txt so C:\games stays clean.
- install.bat (standalone computers): same core + Start Menu/desktop
shortcuts via make-shortcut.vbs (XP-safe); keeps the README.
- README.txt at the zip root explains which entry point to run.
- deploy *.ps1 re-encoded UTF-8-with-BOM: Windows PowerShell read the
BOM-less files as ANSI, where an em-dash byte parses as a curly quote
and breaks string parsing (bit install-rio.ps1 in dry-run testing).
Verified: zip layout correct; extracted package dispatch-tested on
Win10 non-elevated (OS detect -> modern route -> admin guard, system
untouched).

Rename the package payload folder to RIOJoy (was riojoy) so it extracts
to C:\games\RIOJoy, and add a pre-uninstall path the console can run
before deleting the folder.
- pre-uninstall.bat (inside RIOJoy\): self-elevating entry point that
runs uninstall-rio.ps1.
- uninstall-rio.ps1: stops the tray app, removes the HKLM Run entry,
uninstalls ViGEmBus (-KeepDriver to skip), and clears per-user config
for every profile (-KeepConfig to skip). Idempotent and non-fatal.
- build-package.ps1 bundles both; README documents the uninstall flow.

deploy/ builds a single zip for TeslaConsole: the self-contained tray app and
the signed ViGEmBus installer under a riojoy\ folder, with postinstall.bat at the
root. postinstall elevates and runs riojoy\install-rio.ps1, which installs
ViGEmBus silently (if absent) and registers RIOJoy to start at logon — no cert
trust, test signing, Secure Boot change, or reboot.
Also guard against two instances fighting over the COM port (machine-wide +
per-user autostart both firing): a per-session named mutex makes a second launch
exit immediately. Built zips (dist/) and the bundled installer (deploy/vendor/)
are git-ignored.
