I "thought" something like that was happening to me, but didn't follow
through. For operating system compatibility reasons I decided a while back
to just keep using the legacy one, it works well for the simple things that
I do, also some tool I downloaded from TI was a terrible bloat itself in
the computer at that moment, and I really didn't need whatever GUI features
it offered, if any, or why it needed so much space (very early SSD, 1.5 GB
available space total).

Too many words to say, again, thanks to P.Bigot! your stuff is still being
used
