We’ve spent time hardening the installer against these sorts of issues and fixing up the host to provide better messages. We should not see this sort of frustration moving forward.

@marspd, thank you. I follows your issue to remove Terelik’s JustMock, which had conflict with RC2, then is working fine, I have resolved the issues as you, have the best trip over the weekend.
