Expected behavior The installation to start almost immediately

Desktop (please complete the following information):

Additional context The master branch once had a several MB video file in it which we no longer use. I can create a new branch and squash merge master into it and rename the branches for Beta to remove this download from ordinary installs I think.

@epiccurious: I force pushed a history rewrite to master to remove the "How to make super strong pass phrases.mp4" file.

This probably screwed up your PRs. I will delete the file from other branches history so hopefully they'll be on the same page. And the DL can decrease from 6.25MB to a couple hundred kB. It's too slow.

Reduced the size to 600kB, much faster now.
