Add reports/desktop-release-issues-2026-07-03.md documenting the
regressions observed in the Fusion 0.52.0 Windows desktop release,
including:
- fusion desktop fails to launch because electron is a devDependency
- native launcher walks ancestor dirs and fails on unrelated workspace JSON
- Manage Projects opens Settings instead of overview
- Windows Terminal Help version dialogs on dashboard load
- packaged preload.cjs missing in unpacked release layout
- port collisions and dashboard/gateway drift on Windows
- GPU/sandbox rendering instability on Windows Electron
- isolated user-data path needed
- CLI desktop command not reusing an already-running dashboard server
Also include the two experimental mitigations we applied locally:
- disable GPU/sandbox Electron flags in desktop.ts
- skip embedded local runtime when FUSION_SERVER_PORT is already set
These changes are intended as supporting evidence and starting points
for the Fusion team, not as a final fix.
