first of all thank you for your great work!!!
i`ve found a small misstype http://i.imgur.com/gyDoerG.jpg

Request:
i Would like you to ask to add in install.ini a parameter to disable showing the restart dialog with count dawn. A lot of people are frightening of this window :))))))

Regarding the "mistype", (which you misspelled above, by the way :) ), of the word 'whilst', it's actually fine. From http://www.grammar-monster.com/easily_confused/while_whilst.htm:
 

Most Americans find whilst quaint, old-fashioned, or literary. Most Brits, on the other hand, will swap happily between while and whilst, although some Brits also find whilst a little outdated.

Some grammarians engaged in the while-whilst debate claim that, in the meaning during the time that or at the same time as, whilst should be used for a short period of time, and while should be used for a longer period of time.


So since Lego is a Brit, and he is talking about a relatively short period of time, then his use of 'whilst' is perfectly correct, even if an American woulf most likely use 'while'.

Cheers and Regards

bphlpt :D :D :D :D :D sorry for a misspelling above. And for my stupidness)))

but the thing about countdown... it is better to make it configurable in install.ini

Out of curiosity, what is "frightening" about a "restart dialog with count dawn" window? And what would you suggest in its place? Surely you are not suggesting a restart without warning the user?

 

Cheers and Regards

Countdown is even more frightening for lammer users then error. I suggest to have a trigger in install.ini, which allows to make a restart without warning. Or with warning but without countdown and cancel button. I understand that it sounds like a joke, but i have a great experience of making mass products
