launchctl bootout leaves the service label in launchd's disabled overrides database. Subsequent bootstrap calls fail with a misleading "Input/output error". Fix by calling launchctl enable before bootstrap in Install() and Start(), and after bootout in Uninstall(). Also fix wizard service step to show error icon on failure instead of success checkmark, and include command output in error message. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
