Fing desktop stopped working for me the other day, so I tried re-installing. The install process gets about half way through then just dies. Anyone else having this issue? Any work arounds available?

I tried to solve this issue by uninstalling and trying again. Even after a reboot it still failed. Turns out there is a auto running service that has to be manually stopped. This allowed the installation to continue.
I suggest that the installation process be changed to include better error handling. Pop up a message saying "please make sure the fing service is stopped" or "we had a problem installing, please check X". Just disappearing half way through the process is amateur hour.0
