Summary

  • Updates the Windows App User Model ID from com.squirrel.GitHubDesktop.GitHubDesktop to com.squirrel.GitHubDesktopPlus.GitHubDesktopPlus in dev builds
  • The main install path fix was already done in PR Update name of generated binaries #83 (changing getWindowsIdentifierName()). This is a minor follow-up to align the dev build App User Model ID, which Windows uses for taskbar grouping and notifications

Related to #82 (main fix in #83)

Test plan

  • Build a Windows dev build and verify notifications and taskbar identity don't conflict with original GitHub Desktop

The App User Model ID still referenced GitHubDesktop, which could cause
conflicts with the original GitHub Desktop app. This complements the
identifier change in PR desktop#83.

Fixes desktop#82
