Robin, here are the strings that I have as place holders that's not yet checked in, but will be as part of the fix for bug 190816. There are several strings. These strings are shown to the user in the order listed below: * 1) Download of Mozilla was successful. Mozilla must be closed to proceed with installation. Click OK to exit Mozilla automatically and to begin installation. 2) Mozilla (mozilla.exe) has been detected to still be running. Click OK to have Setup attempt to end the process automatically, or you may attempt to end the process manually via the Task Manager and then click OK to continue with Setup. 3) Setup is having diffuculties quitting Mozilla (mozilla.exe). Setup cannot continue unless this process has ended. Please try manually quitting the process, then run Setup again. Setup will now exit. String 1) does not need to be changed because it's already part of the shipping products, unless you think they need to be changed. I've included it in the list just to show you the sequence in which the warning strings will be shown and the idea of what needs to be shown. 2) and 3) are place holders that need your expertise.
I´ve run the installation tests from bug 190816 some times, and I can tell about my impression of the wording, when read while installing. I´m not a native speaker, but fairly aquainted to english, and a fast reader. When writing the bug reports, I couldn´t remember the wording of string 3, so I would suggest putting the last sentence in front of it: Setup will now exit. Setup is having difficulties quitting Mozilla (mozilla.exe). Setup cannot continue unless this process has ended. Please try manually quitting the process, then run Setup again. The action is mentioned first, and then an explanation for whoever is interested in it. This way, the action taken is clear, even when you are thinking about the rest of the text, what action would be necessary. BTW, proof-reading was showing a typo in string 3: diffIculties, not diffUculties
For #2: Setup has detected that Mozilla (mozilla.exe) is still running. Click OK to quit Mozilla and proceed with installation. Alternatively, use the Windows Task Manager to quit Mozilla, and then click OK to continue with installation. For #3: Setup will now exit. Setup could not continue because Mozilla (mozilla.exe) is still running. Try manually quitting Mozilla using Windows Task Manager, and then run Setup again.
thank robin and hermann. back over to me for integration.
