[freenet-dev] test install on Windows 7
I just did a fresh install of Freenet on a newly-minted Windows 7 box, and I'm pleased to say that it went very smoothly! The installer downloaded and installed Java, and while (of course) I'm no newbie, I didn't really encounter any usability problems, except perhaps all the reading a user is expected to do when you choose security settings. I think with those options we should try reducing it to a single sentence for each, with a "read more..." link which opens up a more detailed explanation.

Wee! But. Was that with the current version (the one from the website) or with the beta? I'm very surprised if the current version works on Win7 :o. Can't complain though... - Zero3 On Fri, 23 Oct 2009 11:30:33 -0500, Ian Clarke wrote: > I just did a fresh install of Freenet on a newly-minted Windows 7 box, > and I'm pleased to say that it went very smoothly! > > The installer downloaded and installed Java, and while (of course) I'm > no newbie, I didn't really encounter any usability problems, except > perhaps all the reading a user is expected to do when you choose > security settings. > > I think with those options we should try reducing it to a single > sentence for each, with a "read more..." link which opens up a more > detailed explanation. > > Ian.
