Properties: |
-
Allow new folder creation
If selected, the directory chooser that is displayed with the chooser button will feature a button to create new directories.

Allow spaces in directory name
If selected, spaces are valid characters in the installation directory name for Unix/Linux installers, otherwise an error message is displayed if the user chooses a directory with spaces in it. Some JREs do no work on Unix if installed to a path that contains spaces, so spaces are disallowed by default.
