Description Mihkel Tõnnov 2013-01-13 14:38:17 UTC
When using quote marks in translation (e.g. when referring to buttons in text), the Windows installer escapes them visibly, i.e. shows \" instead of just ".

I went around the problem for now by replacing the straight quotes with the curly ones in translation of "instsetoo_native", but this should be fixed nonetheless.
