How it works
This tool registers itself as a Windows Service. When it starts, it lists all folders under %LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages
and executes CheckNetIsolation.exe LoopbackExempt -a -n=[folder-name]
for every of them. Meanwhile, it setups a watcher for the Packages
directory and receives changes of the newly added packages, so that it can apply the exemption to them as well.
