The installer is warning that the installer should be closed before the
user continues the install. (It "looks" like it's complaining about
itself.) The user could click 'Ignore' as the dialog says and continue.
What isn't clear and what we have no way of knowing is whether another
instance of the installer is already running. That is, someone starts
two instances of the install in which case the 2nd installer would
detect the first and display a dialog like this.
Hi, Larry. Yes, I already know what you have kindly clarified, but I just
don't understand Jim's remark. I mean, the screenshot is right there...
Best wishes,
Roy
