I have just installed 7.15 metric beat, but I do not like any of the defaults.

Typically when running an msi you can choose all the configurables. How can I achieve the same for the beat installations.

I am on windows hence the use of the msi.

Thanks

The Windows installer is, at this moment, not customisable. It's something that we are working on, but I don't have an ETA.
