Me again...

Trying the latest version on Windows now after getting Linux to work, and I seem to be having a problem where the cooktool appears to crash after processes all the project assets.

When I try to export the logs, I'm getting this-

Failed to export the logs: The process cannot access the file 'C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\Temp\CompilerSession-DXGUI-20250821-084642.log' because it is being used by another process.

I tracked down the log in that folder, and it ends with this-

Found the issue: if the option to protect the source code is turned off but asset encryption is on, the module isn't initialized properly. I'm working on a fix and I'll upload it as soon as possible.
