Just tried installing the new 0.11.2 Windows .exe installer and I
experience one definite problem, and one potential issue.
First, the installer seems to freeze after installing the files. The files
install fine and you hit next and you get to a blank page in the installer
and if you hit next the installer freezes and does nothing.
I'm going to restart my laptop and see if that mitigates the issue.
------------------------------
Second, has FreeCol been updated to run as a 64-bit program starting with
0.11.2. I haven't seen anything in the commits to suggest that, but with a
64-bit version of Windows (8.1 in my case), you have two folders for
Program Files:
-- Program Files - For 64-bit programs
-- Program Files (x86) - For 32-bit programs
As far as I can tell, FreeCol has always installed in the x86 folder.
Tonight it installed in the 64-bit program files folder. Not a huge issue,
other than I'd like 0.11.2 to overwrite whatever previous version of
FreeCol I had been running.
I checked the Program Files (x86) folder and that contained FreeCol 0.11.1
though running the 0.11.1 installer showed me the same default option,
Program Files, as the 0.11.2 install.
