Describe the bug
When clicking the Update button in VRCX on macOS, the application closes immediately and does not perform any update process in the background. No error message is shown, and the app remains on the old version after reopening.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Open VRCX on macOS
Click on Update
The application closes instantly
Reopen the application → no update was applied

Expected behavior
The VRCX updater should download and install the latest version, or at minimum show a progress indicator or an error message instead of closing unexpectedly.
