Read the [dated validation report](docs/reports/installed-windows-2026-11-11.md) and [byte/page review manifest](docs/reports/windows-application-guide-1.1.0.json) for exact scope. Historical documentation editions remain unchanged.

+# Installed Windows application validation · 11 November 2026
+
+By Jason Stys. This report records actual published **1.1.0** installed bytes from `4ba77538f5d3025677c51dc3948c1870d2aff963`. Earlier Office editions retain their historical baselines and bytes.
+
+## Observed results
+
+The installed three-phase consumer verified actual play/timer inputs, replay/export, exact authored-scene restart and preserved corrupt-profile recovery.
+
+All required main workflows for the runtime revision passed; processed CodeQL analyses reported zero open main alerts before release.
+
+All 2 assets matched provider/checksum identities; all 6 installed files remained unchanged during acceptance.
+
+New per-user version folder and individual links verified. Synthetic profiles only; existing data and Docker were not used or changed.
+
+## Illustrated user workflow and implementation
+
+The [four-page guide](windows-application-guide-1.1.0.docx) contains two actual installed-application screenshots, a worked user journey, important immutable-source code excerpts, validation observations and practical limits. Every final page content was individually inspected and the OOXML schema passed. The [review manifest](windows-application-guide-1.1.0.json) binds the Word, screenshot, source and rendered-page identities. Prepared examples are inputs to the full application, never separate demo apps.
+
+## Installation, data and limits
+
+Keep the complete extracted ZIP together and launch Forge2DEditor.exe. No system runtime or terminal setup is needed.
+
+Open the verified Desktop icon. Help describes supported inputs and workflow limits; close through the app's owner controls and back up its external data directory after a normal exit.
+
+Unsigned Windows portable app; not an OS installer, signing proof or clean-machine certification. Only marked synthetic profiles and actual own-window handlers/timers tested; no normal AppData, populated-user upgrade or external OS input automation.
+
+Prepared inputs and acceptance used synthetic data only; normal profiles were not opened and Docker was unchanged. Local plaintext is trusted-OS-owner data, not protection against that OS user or administrator.
+
+Desktop and Start-menu link targets were verified. The full installed-executable acceptance is distinct from normal shortcut activation; no additional manual shortcut-button test is claimed. Existing accounts and Docker were unchanged. This documentation revision must pass its own complete hosted checks; earlier runtime results do not certify future source changes.
