  • I have searched the existing issues

Description of the Issue

  1. There can be a problem with successfully clicking the "Show details" button during the installing-phase (sometimes it takes several clicks to finally show the details).

  2. These details cannot be left displayed for some possible inspection after the installer has finished its ops, as the installer immediately switches to its last page “Completing Notepad++ vXXX Setup with Finish-btn” after completing its job.

Steps To Reproduce

  1. Run the Notepad++ installer.
  2. Try to click the "Show details" button.
  3. If ok - repeat 1&2 until the described problem occurs.

Current Behavior

Only sometimes user can see the details during the installation phase, but never at the installer actions end.

Expected Behavior

User can review the installation details either during the installation phase or at least at the installers steps end.

Debug Information

Tested with x64 & x86 v8.7 installer.
