Just downloaded 4.3 on install I failed at Allow installer to close Windows Explorer, after a couple of attemps I had to Ctl Alt Delet to restart. This is on my Asus G75VW Windows 8.1 Pro. My screen was blank with the exceptions of my gadgets

Sometimes Explorer fails to restart properly during uninstall. You can either help the installer by killing Explorer manually, or simply log off and log in after the install.

Yes, installed on one of my Windows 10 Pro computers. Selected not to allow the installer to close Windows Explorer, which mean I selected to restart after the install. Installed with no issues.

So back to my notebook and did the same thing installed no problem.

I can't help but to think that the 8 Gadget pack My Gadgets not closing is what caused the hick up with allowing the installer to close all programs?
