I cannot remember, but in the past sometime didn't the Software Manager remain on the screen after it had completed downloading and installing selected files? In 12.1 and 12.2 MS#1 it just disappears off the screen and one has to go thru the motions of restarting it again using the Kickoff menu. If my memory is incorrect (about it remaining available after downloading/installing s/ware), then is there a way to make the Software Manager stay put to be able to select more files to download/install and only close at the user's discretion (by him using the "Close" button)?
