Updating 1.4.35 -> 1.4.36 on the TV stopped at "Bible App cannot be closed. Please
close it manually and click Retry" with the app plainly closed. That message also
comes from the installer's copy step (and from removing the old version) when any
file in the install folder is in use — not only when Bible App.exe is running.
The app runs programs from its own folder: the local AI server (llama-server.exe),
speech (whisper-cli.exe), the upscaler. electron-builder's stock check closes only
Bible App.exe, and when it has to force-close the app, the app's own shutdown (which
stops the AI server) never runs. The orphaned llama-server.exe then holds its files
open forever, so Retry can never succeed.
- build/installer.nsh: customCheckAppRunning replaces the stock check. It asks the
app to close, force-closes any Bible App.exe left, force-closes the helpers by name,
then, as a backstop, every process whose executable is inside the install folder
(via WMI, which works from the 32-bit installer on 64-bit Windows; the folder is
passed in an environment variable and a bare drive is refused). It runs before the
old version is removed and before any file is copied.
- main.cjs: the in-app updater stops the AI server before launching the installer.
The fix is in the INSTALLER, so the TV still on 1.4.35 gets it with this release.

First commit on the local Gitea server, made after moving the tree off the
Windows machine. Build outputs, node_modules and the AI models stay out
(see .gitignore); everything the installer build needs is tracked.
