Where is the Windows Installer?
Running PrusaSlicer for 1-1/2 years. I am getting a pop-up for an upgrade so I download the zip and it only contains the executable and library files. No windooz installer. I don't remember having to manually install this thing(?)
I googled around to see if there was some announcement about dropping the Windows package. I visited all the usual places (Github, Downloads Page) and they only have the .zip file with distribution files. I googled to see if anybody posted directions on manual installation and the Youtubes all show a download / execute installer process.
What am I missing? I really don't want to have to manually install the thing. I don't do that for the other 4 slicers on my machine.

The exe can also be an installer

RE: Where is the Windows Installer?
Unfortunately the policy is that they only post installers for major version releases near as I can tell. This version is quite old. Other slicers release an installer based version for every update. Prusaslicer uses a Linux-centric approach to Windows which is a mess because it doesn't take into account the registry and all the other windows system stuff (which I am not surprised about since it has never played that well with Windows).
RE:
They provide full installers for the approved patch releases. Lot of builds are pre-release as just exe only, not intended for general audience ( thus they are as zipped exes on github)
