fix: Resolve check-spelling violations in alias management comments

- Rename commandsToDeassociate -> commandsToDisassociate ("Deassociate"
  is not a recognized word; "Disassociate" is the correct form)
- Replace "re-entrant" with "reentrant" in two comment strings
  (matches repo's line_forbidden.patterns rule)

+- The `NeedThanks` column contains a comma-separated list of external contributor usernames who should be credited (empty = no attribution needed, all authors are core team). For each non-empty `NeedThanks` value, append a `by` attribution that lists **every** contributor, matching GitHub's standard contributor-attribution style: `by [@user1](https://github.com/user1)` for a single contributor, `by [@user1](https://github.com/user1) and [@user2](https://github.com/user2)` for two, or `by [@user1](https://github.com/user1), [@user2](https://github.com/user2), and [@user3](https://github.com/user3)` for three or more. In the final consolidated release notes (Step 4.2), the attribution follows the PR link, e.g. `…in [#1234](url) by [@user](url)`. Do not use "Thanks @user!" phrasing.
 - Do NOT include PR numbers in bullet lines
 - Do NOT mention “security” or “privacy” issues, since these are not known and could be leveraged by attackers in earlier versions. Instead, describe the user-facing scenario, usage, or impact.

+# PowerToys Installer & Update Diagnostics
+
+A step-by-step guide for diagnosing installer and update issues reported by users.
+
+## Quick Reference: Key Files
+
+| File/Folder | Path | Contains |
+|---|---|---|
+| UpdateState.json | `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\PowerToys\UpdateState.json` | Persisted update state machine |
+| Runner logs | `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\PowerToys\RunnerLogs\runner-log_*.log` | Startup, update checks, cleanup |
+| Update logs | `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\PowerToys\UpdateLogs\update-log_*.log` | PowerToys.Update.exe activity |
+| Updates folder | `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\PowerToys\Updates\` | Downloaded installer files |
+
+> **Note:** These paths use `%LOCALAPPDATA%` (per-user AppData) regardless of whether PowerToys was installed per-user or per-machine. The data/settings location is always per-user.
+
+## Update State Values
+
+From `src/common/updating/updateState.h` (`UpdateState::State` enum):
+
+| Value | Name | Meaning |
+|---|---|---|
+| 0 | upToDate | No update needed |
+| 1 | errorDownloading | Download or install failed, will retry |
+| 2 | readyToDownload | New version found, not yet downloaded |
+| 3 | readyToInstall | Installer downloaded, waiting for user action |
+| 4 | networkError | GitHub API call failed |
+
+---
+
+## Symptom: Old update installers accumulating on disk
+
+### What to ask the user for
+
+1. Contents of `UpdateState.json`
+2. Runner logs (last few days from `RunnerLogs\`)
+3. Update logs (from `UpdateLogs\`, if they exist)
+4. List of files in `Updates\` folder (names + sizes)
+
+### Step 1: Check the running version
+
+In runner logs, look for the startup line:
+
+```
+[info] Scoobe: product_version=v0.XX.X last_version_run=v0.XX.X
+```
+
+- **If version < v0.73.0**: The pre-download cleanup (PR #27908) is missing. Each downloaded installer accumulates because cleanup only runs at startup when state is `upToDate`. Ask the user to manually upgrade to the latest version.
+- **If version >= v0.73.0**: The pre-download cleanup exists. Accumulation should not happen under normal conditions. Continue to Step 2.
+
+### Step 2: Check UpdateState.json
+
+```jsonc
+{"state": 3, "downloadedInstallerFilename": "powertoyssetup-0.98.1-x64.exe" /* additional fields may be present */}
+```
+
+- **state = 0 (upToDate)**: Cleanup should run at startup. If files are accumulating, check runner logs for "Failed to delete" warnings (Step 4).
+- **state = 3 (readyToInstall)**: An installer is downloaded but never installed. Cleanup at startup is skipped (by design, to preserve the pending installer). On v0.73+, cleanup can still occur when a future update check triggers a new download (pre-download cleanup path).
+- **state = 1 (errorDownloading)**: A previous download or install failed. Startup cleanup is skipped (state is not `upToDate`). On v0.73+, cleanup runs before the next installer download is attempted.
+- **state = 2 or 4**: Startup cleanup is skipped. On v0.73+, cleanup runs before the next installer download is attempted.
+
+### Step 3: Check if PowerToys.Update.exe has ever run
+
+- **UpdateLogs directory missing**: This suggests `PowerToys.Update.exe` may never have been launched, or it did not progress far enough to create logs. The user may never have triggered an install, or Stage 1 may have failed before Stage 2 could run.
+- **UpdateLogs exist but show only "logger is initialized"**: The exe launched but the command-line argument didn't match any action (possible argument parsing issue).
+- **UpdateLogs show install activity**: The update process ran. Check for success/failure.
+
+### Step 4: Check runner logs for cleanup evidence
+
+Search for these patterns:
+
+| Log pattern | Meaning |
+|---|---|
+| `Failed to delete installer file ... Access is denied` | File locked by AV, another process, or permissions issue |
+| `Failed to delete log file ...` | Same, for old log files |
+| `Discovered new version` | Periodic update check ran |
+| `New version is already downloaded` | State is `readyToInstall` and filename matches — no re-download, no cleanup |
+| No cleanup-related entries at all | Inconclusive by itself — `cleanup_updates()` is silent on success. Corroborate with the Updates folder contents (Step 5) and the running version (Step 1). |
+
+### Step 5: Check the Updates folder contents
+
+- **All different versions**: Cleanup likely did not run across multiple update cycles. Confirm with the running version (Step 1) and update state before concluding a state gate issue.
+- **Duplicate filenames**: Unusual — would suggest repeated download without cleanup.
+- **Single file matching `downloadedInstallerFilename`**: Normal for `readyToInstall` state.
+
+### Common root causes
+
+| Root cause | Evidence | Fix |
+|---|---|---|
+| Running pre-v0.73.0 binary | `product_version` < v0.73.0 in runner log | Manually upgrade to latest |
+| State stuck at `readyToInstall` (pre-v0.73) | `"state": 3` in UpdateState.json, no UpdateLogs | Manually upgrade to latest |
+| File lock preventing deletion | "Failed to delete ... Access is denied" in runner logs | Check AV software, reboot and retry |
+| Update installer never launched | No UpdateLogs directory | Check if update notifications are disabled by GPO or setting |
+| Install fails silently | UpdateLogs show init but no install activity | Check related issues: #46966, #46967, #46969 |

 2. Ensure the binary is copied into the platform/configuration output folder (`x64\Release`, `ARM64\Debug`, etc.) so the sparse package can locate it.
 3. Embed a sparse identity manifest in the Win32 binary so it binds to the MSIX identity at runtime. The manifest must declare an `<msix>` element with `packageName="Microsoft.PowerToys.SparseApp"`, `applicationId` matching the `<Application Id>`, and a `publisher` that matches the sparse package. Keep the manifest’s publisher in sync with `src/PackageIdentity/.user/PowerToysSparse.publisher.txt` (emitted by `BuildSparsePackage.ps1`). See `src/modules/imageresizer/ui/ImageResizerUI.csproj` for an example that points `ApplicationManifest` to `ImageResizerUI.dev.manifest` for local builds and switches to `ImageResizerUI.prod.manifest` when `$(CIBuild)` is `true`.
 4. Register or re-register the sparse package so Windows learns about the new application Id.
