docs: fix windows install paths, exit codes and the allowlist - #33
Merged
Conversation
pushlogs and the GitHub self-update hosts were missing entirely, and github.com was labelled installation-only although auto-update polls it every 24h.
Both paths are real and different; the page showed one as "Binary", so a detection rule pointed at whichever the reader saw first.
Exit codes were undocumented and msiexec returning 0 does not mean the device enrolled, so a product-code rule reports success on a host that never reports in.

%ProgramFiles%\Licenseware\LicensewareCollector.exeis the installer-owned seed,C:\ProgramData\Licenseware\bin\LicensewareCollector.exeis the runtime binary the service runs and self-update replaces. They are now labelled as such, with a note that the runtime path only appears after a successful enrolment.%ProgramData%\Licenseware\setup.logfor the reason behind any 1603.msiexecreturning 0 is not proof of enrolment. New MDM section says so explicitly and gives a PowerShell detection script keyed on the service plus the deviceTOKEN=incollector.env. Also warns off file-version rules, which cannot match on agents built before the version resource was added (licenseware/collector#140).pushlogs.licenseware.io(log shipping, on by default),api.github.comandrelease-assets.githubusercontent.com/objects.githubusercontent.com(auto-update, every 24h), and the regional API hosts. Relabelledgithub.comas the osquery fallback rather than "installation only"..exemarked deprecated on the Downloads card.Both
enandestranslation blocks updated, plus a nav entry for the new section.bun run buildpasses and everydata-i18nkey resolves in both languages.
