Policy.  You can't guarantee that the files are the only thing changed in the
system by the installer of this product.  You assume that's the case.

You're not helping the project get any better by filing an invalid bug report
and not filing a valid bug report for the installer (assuming it doesn't work).
 As of this moment, there are 4024 open bug reports for us to deal with, so yes
we do have to pick and choose what we work on, and your report is getting
bumped because it goes against our policy of not copying installs from a
windows machine.
