Connection Timeout: Cannot access manifest file over HTTPS or HTTP

[React1-X]

A user has reported that the launcher is constantly showing the loading sequence, even after uninstalling and reinstalling.

Evidence Notes:

The following code is responsible for the render. It listens on the tauri event to grab the contents of the manifest file from the rust backend, and sets the current game version to be the value it retrieves from the file.

listen<InitialLoadEvent>("initialLoad", (event) => {
    const manifest = event.payload.manifest;

    current_game_version = manifest.currentGameVersion;

    {#if !current_game_version}
      <div class="w-full h-full flex justify-center items-center" role="status">
        <Loader />
      </div>
    {:else}
