The tool does not complete installation #76

Multiple issues present with recent uses: Auto login doesn't prompt or even exist on the machine folders. Parsec desktop shortcut is not present. Parsec is installed but not correctly launched on machine boot. GPU update ask for a reboot, reboot the machine but then running the tool again prompt for the same update it's supposed to have done before reboot

Tried on: -Google Cloud Windows server 2016 with desktop experience and NVIDIA P4 -Google Cloud Windows server 2019 with desktop experience and NVIDIA P4

I've done these exact setups multiple times previously but it recently isn't working anymore and can't really seem to find out why.

hi @Maladril, installing parsec manually worked for me. not sure about other issues.

I fixed the GPU updater pulling down an older version of the driver that it had advertised to you, and now will download the same version it advertised.

Auto Login has been removed as it is insecure, you now must log into the instance using your password.

Parsec did correctly launch for me at boot time when I created a P4 instance on Google Cloud +Windows Server 2019, and I was able to connect to the instance.
