Dumb Picasa Installer

Me: Hi, I would like to install you.

Picasa: OK, great. This installer will automatically use Romanian based on you location. Who cares if your default language is English. Heck, I won’t even give you the option to switch languages.

Me: Oh well, I’ll just change that later.

Picasa: I’m done installing. Let’s run Picasa for the first time! Do you want to scan all your computer or just your Desktop and My Documents folders?

Me: I keep my photos on my network! I want more options or a cancel button! Oh well, I’ll just select My Documents folder then.

Picasa: OK, searching right now. It looks like I found a 1080 HD movie on your desktop. I bet you want me to generate a thumbnail for it. Working…

Me: That’s it. I’m removing these folders from your settings.

Picasa: No you are not. I’m not responding to your commands anymore.

Me: The I’ll just end the process.

* tries again to start Picasa and remove the Desktop folder. Same problem. Finally deletes the troublesome file from the desktop. Picasa eventually accepts the removal of the folder.

Me: Let’s change your language now… English US. Great, it works!

Picasa: Yep, although some shortcuts in the Start Menu are still in Romanian. Isn’t it great you couldn’t change the language before installing?
