Cannot close Commander

Persistent Commander Window After LuxOS Installation

Problem

When using Commander on a Windows system to install LuxOS on a miner, Commander will not close after the install is complete. Clicking the "X" in Windows explorer presents users with a warning message:

A system installation is currently in progress. Exiting now will terminate the installation and may leave incomplete files on your device. Do you want to exit and stop the installation?

Windows Commander

Solution

Confirm that the installation of LuxOS on the target machine is complete by visiting the UI for that miner. Once the miner begins to hash, it is safe to state that the installation process is complete. If so, it is safe to click the "Exit and Stop Installation" button.
