Network Security Restrictions for .exe

[Geduld]

Possible Reasons:

Windows Firewall - Blocks the .exe from making external API calls to ipapi.co, ip-api.com, and ipinfo.io
Missing network permissions - Electron apps need explicit network access declarations in the build configuration
CSP/CORS restrictions - The packaged app runs under different security policies than dev mode

• Development mode runs through Node.js which has network access
• The .exe is a standalone binary that Windows treats as untrusted
