if you try to install a "fresh" Windows lazarus, you can't start lazarus because fpc.cfg is not installed.

You to inkove fpcmkcfg typically with a basepath like fpcmkcfg -d "basepath=C:\lazarus\fpc\2.5.1" -o
C:\lazarus\fpc\2.5.1\bin\i386-win32\fpc.cfg
It might have worked before only by accident.

The installer calls with just -o fpc.cfg, so maybe it gets created in the work directory?

I took a fpc.cfg from an old fpc 2.4.3, changed 2.4.3 to 2.5.1 and i think its ok now!
But for a real newbee that uses this win installer that is a bad experience :-((

Hopefully real newbees use the snapshot installer use it with fpc 2.4.4, the release version.
