====== Inno Setup Checklist ======

**Version:** 2.1\\
**Scope:** Inno Setup scripts, installer behavior, and secure deployment.

===== MUST =====

  * [ ] Upgrade path is defined (same AppId; version handling; migration steps)
  * [ ] Uninstall removes only what was installed (no overly broad deletes)
  * [ ] Install locations follow Windows conventions; per-user vs per-machine is explicit
  * [ ] Privilege requirements are minimal; admin rights only if required and justified
  * [ ] Code signing strategy is defined (installer and binaries)
  * [ ] Silent install/uninstall is supported (where required) with deterministic exit codes
  * [ ] Log output (if enabled) is safe; no secrets/PII exposed

===== SHOULD =====

  * [ ] Repair/install checks for running processes and handles in-use files cleanly
  * [ ] Validate prerequisites (VC runtimes, .NET, Office, etc.) with clear error messages
  * [ ] 32/64-bit behavior is explicit; avoid registry/path confusion

===== NICE =====

  * [ ] Provide checksum verification for downloaded payloads
  * [ ] Provide rollback strategy for partial failures
