v2.0.1 R1.1 — Updater foundation / R1.1

New

Added external updater executable: resources/update/NFEUpdate.exe.
Added Qt updater UI and Win32 fallback repair UI.
Added SHA-256 checksum verification for update packages.
Added updater Settings tab and saved updater preferences to resources/SaveData/.
Added built-in Light, Dark, and System themes.
Added folders for update logs, rollbacks, cache, checksums, and downloaded packages.

Changed

Backspace in a folder now behaves like the Up button.
Settings storage moved into the NFE runtime layout under SaveData.
Normal update packages and one-file update packages now use separate fixed server paths.

Repair/update behavior

Normal updates skip resources/Qt/ so the Qt updater does not try to replace files it is currently using.
Repair mode uses Win32 fallback to repair or replace Qt files.
Updater uses bundled 7-Zip files, not the user's system 7-Zip installation.

v2.0 R1 — Native rebuild base

First native C++ / Qt rebuild of Noxen File Explorer, restoring the core Explorer-style workflow from the older Python/PySide6 version while moving toward a modular DLL-based runtime.

Legacy Python era

Older NFE releases were Python/PySide6 based and included tabbed browsing, This PC, Quick Access, ZIP support, MTP companion workflow, progress dialogs, and other Explorer-style features. The Razer Native line carries those ideas forward in C++.
