fix: fall back to the Startup folder when Task Scheduler is denied - #5
Merged

Conversation
schtasks /Create /SC ONLOGON returns 'Access is denied' for non-elevated sessions on the affected host, so the Alpha.4 autostart install could not protect the machine. Auto mode now falls back to a Startup-folder loop that runs watch --once --quiet every N minutes, and the immediate helper starts fully detached (null stdio, DETACHED_PROCESS). - add --method auto|task|startup and Startup-script reporting in status/doctor - keep Task Scheduler as the preferred path when the host permits it - regression test for the periodic loop script

Alpha.4's
autostart installfailed on the affected machine:schtasks /Create /SC ONLOGONreturnedAccess is deniedin a non-elevated session, so no persistent protection was installed even though the detection fix was correct.Fix
--method auto|task|startup.autostill prefers Task Scheduler (logon daemon plus periodic check) and now falls back to a Startup-folder loop when task creation is denied.watch --once --quietevery N minutes (5 by default) and survives logons without administrator rights.Stdio::null,DETACHED_PROCESS | CREATE_NEW_PROCESS_GROUP) so the install command no longer hangs on inherited pipes.autostart statusanddoctorreport the Startup-script state.Verified on the affected machine
