Hi everyone,

It's been about two months of coding and too many cups of coffee since my last post about Servy here. I've shipped several updates since then, but this one is a real milestone. The community response has been amazing: ~1,600 stars on GitHub and ~34,000 downloads.

If you haven't seen Servy before, it's a Windows tool that runs any app as a native Windows service with full control over its configuration, parameters, and monitoring. It provides a desktop app, a CLI, and a PowerShell module that let you create, configure, and manage Windows services interactively or through scripts and CI/CD pipelines. It also comes with a Manager app for easily monitoring and managing all installed services in real time.

In this release (7.9), I've added/improved:

• Improved PowerShell Module Performance: Replaced all WMI with native P/Invoke, making commands significantly faster and more reliable.
• Improved security: Automatic Directory Hardening (ACLs) and Machine-Unique Encryption (Dynamic Entropy)
• Custom Logging: Added LogRotationSizeMB, LogRollingInterval, LogLevel, and EnableEventLog configs for better observability in production environments.
• General Polish: Fixed many issues across the PowerShell module, CLI, and core components.
