Notes 9/Admin/Designer install screen gives following error. Click OK and it shuts down. This is an upgrade to 8.5.3.3 installed in: c:\program files (x86)\ibm\lotus\notes. 8.5.3.3 still functions OK.

Mac upgrade to R9 went well.
Nice UI and appears to be faster.  Much more testing needed but I like it.
