</div></div>Hi,<br>
<br>
I have already answered this some time before: people just don't read carefully enough.<br>
To get them to read carefully enough, the part of the UI installer which is already in<br>
red should also be with bold characters and a bigger lettering (or better, high case).<br>
<br>
My 5 cents.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Mélodie<br>
