Hi, @DNSB.
That's odd. I can't replicate this issue.
The config dialog is not tied to Node.js or ACE installation in any way. The only check made when opening it
for the first time is related to EPUBCheck: it checks if your Java is 32 or 64 bits. This check is made only once.
It may cause a small delay when opening the config dialog for the first time. But it's just couple of seconds, anyway.
Now, about Node.js and ACE installation requirement. I'll add this to thread. Thanks for noticing it. Also, I added a warning message to the user when Node.js is not installed. As for ACE, there was already a message for it.
I'll release the patch in a few minutes.
