Significant CPU usage decrease by reworking how single instances work,
on a mobile i7 for example with a single controller connected usage went
from 4-6% to .5-1.5%. With no controllers connected the usage went from
2.5-4.5% to 0%!
As mentioned before, single instances has been reworked, so trying to
relaunch DS4W more reliably opens the previous instance

This makes it easier to distribute a single zip and not have multiple exe’s in it. I know there’s the Updater.exe, but if it’s deleted, it will now be redownloaded. This way I can just put one executable in the zip, so casual users don’t get confused.
If Virtual Bus is installed via DS4Windows, there is an uninstall link in about.
