Describe the bug
The installer VRCX_20250509_Setup.exe places the DBMerger into the same folder as the main VRCX install. Due to .NET version differences, in some(?) configurations this will cause it to fail to run.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Run the installer, with default settings.
Attempt to run DBMerger.

Expected behavior
The installer should unpack DBMerger and its dependencies to a different folder, or not include it at all (and have DBMerger as a seperate file with the releases).

Discussed at https://github.com/vrcx-team/VRCX/discussions/1235
I have manually moved the files to a seperate folder, and now they work fine.
As there is no configuration settings when running the installer, this is an installer issue.
