However, I don't think that this is due to Windows installer but to the checking of available viewers, engines and packages via program calls on/for all OS types. As configuring is only required after updates, this should not be a problem. My objection was against coupling the config/test with autoupdate/autoinstall for Windows and then disabling a check because autoinstallation takes too long. However, I may be wrong and the check for the "cbfonts-complete" package has no influence back on LyX and was only added for the autoinstall feature. In this case, removing it again may be fine.
