Here is how it (20250221) looks like on Windows 11:

So it seems it hangs for you before setting the "theme" and before any of the settings are loaded to adjust the menu.

Does the latest nightly build make a difference?

[Blackhex]

The latest nightly build from 2 hours ago suffers with the same issue too. Tested on two different Arm64 machines. But I have noticed that after accidentally keeping the installer windows open overnight the button got enabled, probably after some significantly long timeout.

Hm, ok, thanks for testing.
