Hi List! I take the liberty to start a new thread on this subject. I am currently having serious trouble using QGis because of the poor Windows support. I was happily using the second preview when I decided to upgrade to Kore. Then the trouble began. As described on the QGis forum, the so-called installer leaves out important components in the Express installation, and renders an unusable system if an Advanced installation is attempted. Why is this so? Open Source should not be restricted to non-windows operating systems. I think that's unfair, because many users are not at liberty to choose their operating system. The front page of the QGis.org site labels QGis *a user friendly Open Source Geographic Information System*. That is not true, if installing the program on Windows requires a manual assembly of bits and pieces from all over, tweaks here and there, with still no guarantee of a stable and functioning system. Would anybody care to explain what's going on, and if any improvement is in sight?
Regards, Mats.E
