The following changes were made in this Maintenance Release:

I was notified of the Maintenance Release this morning so I clicked to download it, but the message that the "download is 100% complete" stays on my screen. If I "hoover" over the message, then I see - not an hour glass but something similar showing that the Maintenance Release wants me to wait while it is doing something. What is going on?

Thank you,

One of the things that was fixed in an earlier Maintenance Release was that the installer would get hung up at 100% for up to 30 minutes before completing. You can either stick it out and let it finish installing, or kill the process using CTRL+ALT+DEL and download and install the Maintenance Release manually:

Thank you for the quick reply. I waited the 30 minutes and the screen showed that I should now upload the Maintenance Release and restart the file server.

I read in the FAQ that each Maintenance Release carries all the fixes from previous Releases, so am I correct in thinking I shouldn't experience the "hang up" again when future Releases are downloaded?

Correct, if this is your first MR, it will contain all the fixes up to this point.
