You're linking directly to these exes and installers. Why? Would you like us to install them and see if we get it, too? I would accept links to the pages where you got them from but not the exes themselves.– OctopusCommented Sep 14, 2016 at 18:12

@Octopus: Srsly? IE will warn you and n00bs like you if you accidentally click the link. (If you're more advanced than that I'm sure you can find the pages in five seconds using the so-called search engine called "google.")– Jonas ByströmCommented Sep 14, 2016 at 18:48

@Kaizerwolf: Sorry, but when it started out, stackexchange used to be about asking serious questions in search of intelligent answers and there were hardly any cheesy knuckleheads about questioning the details. It was all about helping each other understand. "Why link directly to .exe's" is not helpful in the slightest. I've been here 6x longer than you and feel the original intent often gets lost these days. Does that make sense to you, or do you think I'm just a grumpy chump?– Jonas ByströmCommented Sep 14, 2016 at 20:33

No, I think you're being a "grumpy chump". The comments are for questions and clarifications, not answers. Octopus' comment was just that; a comment, and you blew it WAY out of proportion.– nightsurferCommented Sep 14, 2016 at 20:54

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. windows-7), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
