Depending on your Windows

Security and User Account Control settings, warnings may ap-
pear several times during the installation process, asking to allow software installation. Please
confirm that when appropriate in order to proceed with a proper software installation.
The installer checks if Microsoft
®
.NET Framework 4.6.2 is installed already and requires the in-
stallation of eventually missing components. An appropriate status message appears - click "In-
stall".
Usually, the Microsoft
