Description

When clicking the "Check for Updates" button in the Phi Silica section, a command prompt window briefly appears before opening the Windows Settings app.

Expected Behavior

The Settings app should open directly without showing a command prompt window.

Current Behavior

A command prompt window flashes on screen before the Settings app opens.

Root Cause

The app is likely using cmd /c start ms-settings:windowsupdate or similar, which spawns a cmd.exe process.

Suggested Fix

Use direct shell execution without cmd.exe wrapper, or use the Windows API to launch the URI directly.
