      Thank you for the clarification. It did not know these details.
pspp.awardspace.com and sourceforge.net/pspp4windows are not controlled
by the PSPP developers.   Those have been set up by Harry Thijssen
(who is normally active on this list) as a service to those who find
it useful.  (Harry, maybe you could consider ftr's suggestions?)

So, where do you get a real production version ? ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/pspp
So, unless you can compile PSPP yourself, there is no "official" PSPP
release.

And, oh, BTW, no one knows how to compile PSPP on Windows -- because of
dependencies like GSL, and because of differences in the GNU-based build
system used by PSPP versus something like MS Visual Studio, it would
take more than the usual wizardry to do so. Harry cross-compiles Windows
binaries from Linux.

ftr: About your other problems, I'm running 0.9.0-g3a3d58 and I have no
such issues (no long install, no long wait for frequencies output).  So
I suggest that you uninstall the snapshot that you are using and try
0.9.0-g3a3d58. If you continue to have the same difficulties, it's
probably something about your computer. If not, it's probably something
about that release that you can submit as a bug.

Thanks for all your help.

I now uninstall 0.9.0-g3a3d58 to install the previous 0.9.0-g3a3d58 version in a proper way and it seems I get into similar trouble when uninstalling. Using Revo Uninstaller I see that the pssp uninstaller searches in non-pspp program folders such as
c:\Program files (x86)\{user name}\Toshiba wireless manager\ or
c:\Program files (x86)\{user name}\Xmind\
which sounds weird to me.

I'll let the pc run all the night to see what happens.

BTW, the https://sourceforge.net/projects/pspp4windows/files/2015-11-16/pspp-090+20151116-snapshot-64bits-setup.exe/download is also a snapshot file.
