So I went into Windows Defender and removed all the files that were marked with Trojan, then I ran the RoR updater from the folder. It ran fine and opened up the RoR launcher. The game launched without problems. Hope this helps.

Turn off antivirus and run launcher again, itll patch and connect will reappear, then you can re-enable antivirus again.

Run the RoRUpdater from the directory as opposed to the Launcher - see if this works.

Anti-virus/Firewall Settings

It's always a good idea when dealing with unknown compatibility issues to whitelist the folders and applications you're trying to get to work. Your anti-virus and/or malware scanner may be blocking any number of files and processes either WAR or the RoR Launcher need in order to run. Most AV software has the ability to temporarily disable it for testing. If that is blocking the game from working, then look up how to add the WAR folder to the whitelist. If you find a specific piece of software that is blocking RoR, please let us know so we can add it to the list.

Windows Firewall is a bit more standard. You can simply disable to firewall to test whether or not it's having an effect on your ability to connect to the game properly. If it works, then you'll need to either look up how to add exceptions, or leave it disabled.
