v1.0 - Use EXE files for auto-update (avoids Windows Defender blocking)

- Changed to prefer .exe files (single-file executable)
- Avoids ZIP extraction issues with Windows Defender/antivirus
- Added FetchOnlyLatestRelease for better API rate limiting
- Simplified configuration following James Montemagno's pattern
- Better error handling and file existence checks

This should work reliably now!
