… remove v142 toolset - Fix thread-safety bug: protect g_excludedApps with mutex (settings thread writes while hook callbacks read concurrently) - Add GRABANDMOVE_EXIT_EVENT so disable() signals the exe to exit gracefully instead of relying solely on TerminateProcess after 1.5s timeout - Embed GrabAndMove.manifest (PerMonitorV2 DPI awareness) into the exe via vcxproj Manifest item - fixes wrong coordinates on mixed-DPI setups - Remove hardcoded PlatformToolset v142 from both vcxproj files; inherit v143/v145 from repo-wide Cpp.Build.props - Fix FILETYPE VFT_DLL -> VFT_APP in GrabAndMove.rc (exe, not dll) - Remove dead locals in EndInteraction - Fix copy-paste comment in resource.h (CropAndLock.rc -> GrabAndMove.rc) - Add missing <mutex> and <vector> includes to pch.h
