Test scope

Windows 10 x86/x64, Windows 11 x64 and Windows Embedded Standard 7 SP1 x86/x64 have complete predecessor acceptance records. This publication changes the splash artwork and its painter only; all other program classes and packaged runtimes are byte-identical. The no-Java launcher's download URL was also updated. Java 17/25 program and GUI checks were repeated. Docker was rebuilt and tested with the new artwork.

Desktop Windows 7, Vista, Windows 8/8.1, XP and Windows ARM64 do not yet have complete native acceptance. Their experimental packages, the universal installer and the Flatpak prototype are not offered here. macOS has not been qualified.
