Install notes
- Portable mode: the library lives in
%APPDATA%\BandBinder. To run fully portable (library stored next to the app), create an empty file namedportable.txtnext tobandbinder.exebefore first launch. - SmartScreen: if Windows shows "Windows protected your PC", click "More info", then "Run anyway". The app is signed, but SmartScreen trust can take time to build.
- Missing VCRUNTIME140.dll: install the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable once - any up-to-date Windows 11 PC already has it.
- Updating: no installer - unzip the new download above over the old folder. Your library is stored separately and is never touched by an update. The app tells you in-app when a new version is out, so there's no need to check back here manually.
