The third screen of the installation wizard repeats the words "automatic" and "update" 4 times (in 4 lines) and asks me if I want those.
But it never tells me whether it refers to updates of PSI itself or to updates of other outdated software PSI finds while it is running.

I think this is a serious usability bug.
Please make the text more helpful!

The screen during the installation called "Automatic Update Configuration" refers to any insecure program that needs updating (including the PSI itself if a vulnerability is ever found in it).

A bug report has been created regarding this issue. Thank you for your feedback.
