comments on the 8.2.15 Win installer
First page
- Title: 'Welcome to the BOINC Installer Wizard for BOINC'. Verbose. How about 'Welcome to the BOINC Installer'?
- Font is kinda small. We should try to have the same font throughout (including WSL)
- 'WARNING...' Omit?
Is the BOINC graphic on each page a good thing? I'm not sure.
License agreement
- No 'Berkeley Open Infrastructure...'; we don't use that anymore
- Smaller font? not Courier?
BOINC Configuration
- screensaver should default to off
- 'now disabled by default' is confusing
- 'a reboot may be required': omit?
- have a checkbox for WSL here?
Note: maybe instead of references to WSL, Docker etc.
we should just call it 'Support Linux apps'
Ready to Install
Completed
- 'Launch the installation of the BOINC WSL Distro': this is confusing
WSL installer
- It shouldn't look like a separate installer.
It should look like a phase of the BOINC installer
(or ideally it should be invisible)
- 'This will install the BOINC WSL Distro, allowing BOINC to run jobs based on Docker'. Too much information.
- Uninstall button here is confusing - omit?
- Open Log button is confusing - omit?
- Should never refer to 'BUDA runner'.
- Last button should be 'Finish', not 'Exit'
Start menu
- boinc-buda-runner appears here; it shouldn't
Uninstall
- Doesn't remove boinc-buda-runner; it should
