ROMView filename mismatch

The ROMView button in ZC Launcher 2.6.12 tries to launch romview.exe, but the file packaged with 2.53 is actually romview-w.exe.

TY, I'll fix this in the next update.

Sorry, I replied from the wrong account. That is my account for zc.com, because y permissions under this one are such a patch job. Anyway, I must have been including the wrong EXE for a while. I ill fix it tomorrow or Friday The current src for RV crashes (and has for years), so i was bundling a version that DD made in a very old branch where he refactored it, but in a way where it is not comptible with the currently active src repos, and I have not have the time to fiddle with it because pretty much no-one uses RV, except me. on rare occasion.

I'm not sure if you wanted to use RV, or if you just noticed the bug i the package, but the fact that in 2 1/2 years, no-one else noticed says that we might be better-off just deprecating RV in the long-term. it barely works.

Anyway, I still have a stable Win32 exe for RV that is decent to include i the next upload. :shrug:
