This is mindboggling to me.
Why do you decide as a developer to set these settings as standard, when people are installing to use the program? It means that the program will not start up and you cannot change it, unless you are lucky. The other way around you would always be able to add this machinepower if you have the premise to do so, after installing the program. And if it dont work for you or it mess up you can always fix it by reinstalling the program.
It was the same setting with the batch, which is set to overwrite back over the Raw input where the files were comming from. So when done you could not reverse.
Pleace just change these small things that break the program from amazing, to crappy shit that will not work.
