  1. Download bundled ass wowsimcata-windows.exe.zip from Github assets

Expected behavior Previous versions cleared Windows Defender, updated build versions should do the same

Additional context I still am using 0.0.43 as for now that was the latest build that was downloaded successfully. both 0.0.44 and 0.0.45 have had the above issue for me.

@mikeekert Windows defender has a very high false positive rate on Trojan:Script/Wacatac.H!ml which is a very generic detection caused by Windows Defender's machine learning detection algorithm. My PR does reduce the Mitre Attack score slightly but it probably won't fix the issue. It is a clean false positive that happens from time to time, you'll just need to add an exclusion for the affected versions. As it is a local ML detection that takes place, I have not been able to replicate the detection on at least 3 Windows devices I've tried. (10+11)
