Launcher deleted itself - 5.5 patch

Hey there, been playing for the past 2-3 weeks now and no issues so far. However today I opened the launcher, waited and hit play after putting my information in. The launcher disappeared and nothing happened for about 30 seconds. I clicked to open the launcher again and it tells me it's referring to a file that doesn't exist anymore (?), and looking in the folder it seems the launcher just deleted itself somehow. So I reinstalled my older client I had downloaded (torrent, the updater was suuuper slow) and now the launcher just says checking files for the 30 minutes or so that I waited so far with no #/# display. :<

I know 5.5 just dropped, does that mean I have to redownload the entire game via torrent when there's a patch? I assume this is why my launcher freaked out on itself maybe ^^
Either way, currently torrenting the 5.5 client to see if that fixes it :D

Your anti-virus will of deleted the file.
That is why you need to set folder exclusions or it'll just happen again
 
My windows defender is off, checked to make sure and folder access is completely off as well.

Completely downloading and reinstalling worked, I just hope I don't have to do that every patch :<
