Safe to Run Patch?

windows defender pops up when trying to install the patch

yes.

Yes the patch is safe to run, windows defender likes to false positive patches because it technically modifies the game files by adding stuff. As long as you are getting the patch from official sources there is nothing to worry about.

Patches from Otaku Plan website are always safe, ignore what Windows Defender says.

Though for me Windows Defender never gets on my case when I install any patch.

I'm unable to install the patch properly myself. When I run the installer and put the game file directory into it it just rejects and says "unknown version cannot update." Any ideas?

Windows defender is... unintelligent let's just say. I've had many indie games and software pop up on it. I'm guessing you need to pay some bribe to microsoft for WD to not detect the simplest program as a big bad virus lol

If you aren't pirating software or playing cartoon porn games with child characters that need to circumvent Steam guidelines then the most likely reason for a program to modify another program is that it is malicious.

Windows Defender was not optimized for pirates and pedophiles. It is doing its job correctly by warning you that the file you are about to run is trying to modify existing programs on the computer. Which it is.
