 ClearZone PC - Portable Edition (single file)
============================================================

ClearZone PC is a safe, conservative Windows cleaning & optimization tool.
This PORTABLE edition is a single, self-contained executable. No installation
and no .NET runtime are required.

HOW TO RUN
1. Extract ClearZonePC.exe to any folder you can write to (Desktop, USB).
   Do NOT place it in Program Files.
2. Double-click ClearZonePC.exe.

The first time it runs, a "Data" folder is created next to the executable to
hold your settings, logs and recovery backups:
   ClearZonePC.exe
   Data\  (settings.json, Logs\, Recovery\)
Nothing is written to %AppData% or Program Files.

Only one copy runs at a time: launching it again brings the running window to
the front instead of opening a second instance.

REQUIREMENTS
- Windows 10 or Windows 11 (64-bit). No .NET install needed (bundled).

SECURITY
- Digitally signed (Authenticode) by "Franklyn Vasquez". Verify in:
  right-click ClearZonePC.exe > Properties > Digital Signatures.
- The code is obfuscated for tamper resistance.

UNINSTALL
- Nothing to uninstall: delete ClearZonePC.exe (and the Data folder).

 Version 1.0.0
