Summary0002189: still defaulting to "install as service"
DescriptionI seem to recall an old thread in which it was agreed that win32 unreal should not default to "install as service" since most people aren't advanced enough to do that, but the win32 version (at least the SSL version) is still defaulting to install-as-service

 nothing significant just a little tweak....

Unreal uses the same setting as the last time you installed it. Therefore, if you installed 3.2.1 as a service, 3.2.2 will default to service. However, if you've never installed Unreal on your machine before then it should not have the option enabled by default.

The .iss line that deals with installing as a service has 'Flags: unchecked'.
I think the installer "remembers" somewhere that in the past you installed it as a service or not, anyone with more experience with MyInno setup feel free to correct me.
(incidently, that also caused my confusing that I thought for more than a year that 'install as a service' was already disabled by default ;p).
