First, update your antivirus definitions. Microsoft Defender detected version 2.11.1 as malware for some reason, so maybe it removed the files. Updating the antivirus definitions should remove the detection.

Then, try to uninstall the current PWAsForFirefox version from control panel or settings and reinstall it again. You may then also need to run "Update web apps" and "Patch profiles and runtime" from the extension settings.

I will close this issue as it was probably caused by Microsoft Defender. If you still have the issue, reinstall PWAsForFirefox and run "Update web apps" from the extension settings.
