Unable to Create a Stand-Alone Installation

I can't choose the stand-alone installation, the install for drop-box is greyed out and set to "all users on this computer". How can I fix this?

(I've got Opera installed on my computer normally already, I just want to have it on my usb drive too. The installer is also telling me that "my existing Opera installating will be upgraded". So maybe it's the installer being incredibly stupid and forcing me to upgrade even though it cannot possibly know what I want to do with it?sad )

I think you have to select "different folder" (or similar - to force a new install, not upgrade).
Then you can select the standalone option.

Hmm, I was about to type in "nope, already tried that" but then I tried to manually type in the path, and the option unlocked.

Weird, picking the folder does nothing, typing it in works.

Thanks! smile
