Hi Nicolas! I appreciate you trying to help. For now, I’ll just relax and wait for a fix which will come eventually. I am not in the mood for guessing what the false error message is trying to say. And the OSGEO4W installer has a download cycle that takes hours, even on my 100 Mbit connection. And clutters my hard drive. Been there, won’t go again.
