Uninstalling or modify installation in 1.1.0 by going through Windows - "Start - Control Panel - Add / remove" programs is cumbersome - unlike the ease of 1.03
I don't understand? What's 'cumbersome'? What's unlike the 'ease of 1.03'?
Good day, a) By " cumbersome" I mean long procedure and not easy. In 1.1.0 "Un - install" is not menu item. So to remove (or modify) 1.1.0 from computer user has to go through Windows - Control panel and then select "Add Remove Programs" and the select "1.1.0" in dialog box there. b) By "unlike the 'ease of 1.03'" - I mean short procedure. In 1.03 "Set up" is menu item. So to remove (or modify)1.03 from computer user has to point to "Set up" and click.
Request kindly to reopen issie I have just tried to "modify" 1.1.0 installation and my system crashed - I received message "error occured while running 1.1.0" and error report has been sent automatically. I will attach "error report receipt" when I get it.
a) + b): It's not allowed by Windows style guide to put Setup links to start menu. That's why it has been removed from the menu. I don't see that this change will be reworked.
