- Enhanced release body to include checksum information conditionally based on executable upload.
- Refined upload process for MSI and executable, including better error handling and logging.
- Implemented `set_exe_version` method in `WindowsBuilder` to set the version information for the generated executable.
- This ensures proper MSI updates by comparing file versions.
- Added error handling for missing `pefile` dependency and version resource.
- Updated `requirements-dev.txt` to include `pefile` as a dependency for building.
- Updated config.example.json to set default log_file to null.

- Ensured logging behavior is consistent whether a log_file is specified or not.
- Changed installation scope from "perMachine" to "perUser" in the Windows installer configuration.
- Updated installation directory from "ProgramFiles64Folder" to "LocalAppDataFolder" for user-specific installations.
- Enhanced the configuration saving method to create parent directories if they don't exist.
- Improved the main window script loading logic to support multiple installation scenarios (development, PyInstaller, MSI).
- Added detailed logging for script loading failures and success messages.
- Implemented a new method to reconfigure logging settings at runtime, allowing dynamic updates from the settings dialog.
- Enhanced the settings dialog to handle configuration saving, including log level changes and error handling.
- Updated icon path handling to support both development mode and PyInstaller bundle.
- Modified script path loading to accommodate PyInstaller bundle structure.
- Adjusted download interceptor path to work with PyInstaller bundle.

- Mark components as 64-bit by adding Win64="yes" attribute in harvested files.
- Update WiX configuration to use ProgramFiles64Folder for installation.
- Add a new component for creating a desktop shortcut for the WebDrop Bridge application.
- Updated the path to the built executable to reflect changes in the output structure.
- Added calculation and display of total distribution size after build.
- Enhanced error reporting for the MSI linking process by capturing and printing stdout and stderr output.
- Updated WiX source file to include UI namespace for better compatibility.

This commit introduces a new test script, `test_msi.py`, which automates the process of creating an MSI installer. The script utilizes the `WindowsBuilder` class to generate the installer and checks for its successful creation, providing feedback on the result and the file size.
