Special Note on Downloading

A user has reported that his browser tried to launch NFO immediately after downloading, but could not find the file, thus, generating an error message.
What has happened? What to do about it?
Your browser has successfully downloaded NFO, but it has lost track of the installer/updater file. So, use Windows Explorer to search for the file "InstallNFO" or "UpdateNFO" (depending on what you did). When Explorer locates that file, note its location, then highlight and copy the found file. Create a new directory on the C: drive, i.e., C:/DownloadNFO/. Go into that new directory and paste the found file.
Then, double clicking on the newly relocated file will launch the installer/updater. Of course, contact us if this procedure doesn't work.
