Parallel session was right — the previously-shipped f94834b5 pre-dated:
1. the ASCII em-dash sweep in setup/install.ps1 (Inno's [Run] uses
powershell.exe / PS 5.1; em-dashes in the file crashed the parser
under UAC, so the installer copied files but never registered the
scheduled task or NRPT rule)
2. the multi-TLD NRPT expansion (added .p2p .bit .nav alongside .bch)
3. the VPS-primary electrum server list — resolver-web.js now dials
wss://coinspectrum.duckdns.org:50011 first (Silent Mode's own
BCHN-backed BNS-only indexer), public servers as fallback
Result: a real user installing 3438d558 on a fresh Windows box now gets
a working system-wide resolver with no manual steps.
Deployed to dl.silentmode.st and mirrored to Sia bns/silentmode/.
