Expression Blend 3 March CTP Installer’s Bug…

Yesterday I was installing Microsoft Expression Blend 3 March CTP on my Windows 7 Box. After following 2-3 Screens in the setup wizard, following screen came:

God! What to do next? Where is the next button? Where to click. Literally I clicked every single pixel of this screen but nothing happened :(. Neither did I know if installer is doing something or downloading some updates to be installed. I kept the installer running for next 3-4 hours and do my own work hopping that it’ll proceed but nothing happened :D. Then I posted a question on Expression Blend’s forum here. Prasad suggested to hit the “Enter” while focusing the Screen. I did so and it took a few more seconds and setup proceeded to finish :D.

I was installing it on Windows 7 Build 2007 and don’t know if problem comes on Windows XP and Vista too.

If anyone of you is facing this problem then don’t wait for hours like me :$ just hit the Enter and you’ll be done!

Happy Designing & Coding!
