okay, thanks very much ! doing that now.

hm, i was expecting it to program the check for next bootup as well but it appears to have launched... that seems odd to me... and now it's done. it mentioned a few "deletions of entry something or other" in the window but i didn't have time to note them before it closed...

something tells me i did that wrong, i'll try it again.
