Bug description

When running the installer, a error pops up saying; "HidHide requires an active internet connection for installation. Please check your network configuration and proxy settings". I should note, I do in fact have a usable and stable internet connection through a cable. Under Network Connections on Windows 10, I have a bluetooth network that isn't connected, a Ethernet connection that is connected, and a VirturalBox host-only network that is enabled but not being used. I've also attempted to run the installer as admin, and go the same result.

Steps to reproduce

Download installer
Open installer
That's it. Due to the nature of the bug, I have no idea how to actually diagnose why this is happening or give any better steps to reproduce.

Actual result: Can't use the installer due to it not seeing my internet connection. Expected result: Being able to install the program.

The problem may be due to DNS settings. For example, I'm using Simple DNSCrypt and I had to disable it in order to start the installation. In any case, this is not a normal situation. Let then the installers in the future immediately contain everything you need.

The installer does contain everything necessary, it needs Internet access to check for prerequisites, which I will not bundle because it will just artificially and unnecessarily inflate the setup size. I consider this solved.
