I agree. I created a somewhat related suggestion here: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTIFW-3012
From: Interest <interest-boun...@qt-project.org> on behalf of Turtle Creek Software <supp...@turtlesoft.com> Date: Wednesday, 5 July 2023 at 02:43 To: Sze Howe Koh <szehowe....@gmail.com> Cc: interest@qt-project.org <interest@qt-project.org> Subject: Re: [Interest] Installer problems Thanks for the suggestion. We did finish the installs eventually, but we'll try that if the problem repeats in the future. If time-outs are a common problem, maybe it would help to add this as an option in the installer interface? More accessible than a terminal command line buried in a wiki...
