+- WheelWizard suite: **259 tests**, including backend selection/migration, configuration isolation,
   all four backend/game launch command paths, same-version wrong-product rejection, separate
   release routing, exact self-update asset selection, shared NAND configuration, Mii edit blocking,
   and uninstall preservation of both backends' configuration, NAND, and ghosts.
+- Launcher UI follow-up: rendered Home with active wheel artwork and the OpenXR settings page at
+  the default 656×876 layout. The window title, game selector, game title and backend subtitle fit;
+  artwork is clipped below the selector. Exercised the actual OpenXR checkbox with isolated
+  preferences and verified it writes the configuration. Regression tests cover explicit OpenXR-off
+  preservation during launch preparation and VR preference persistence/reset across backend changes.
+  OpenXR now defaults on for managed installations while preserving an explicit desktop choice.
+- About-page follow-up: added "OpenXR VR by iChris4" immediately below Translator Team with a
+  native vector headset icon. Credits scroll independently of version information. Built the Windows
+  executable, checked its release identity, and inspected the rendered About page at 656×876.
 - Retro Rewind transaction tests: staged replacement, cancellation, preservation of saves/ghosts
   and XML save directories, current distribution ZIP layout, archive path validation, interrupted
   publication recovery, and a real Windows locked-file failure after one directory was published.
