        It's installed already? That doesn't seem possible. Are you sure that you didn't just boot up the ISO and not do the install yet? It's a LiveCD (runs without installing.) Look on the desktop, there should be an icon that says "Install."

          To show us what you see on your screen you can take and post screenshots using Windows Snipping tool (functional but flaky) or ShareX. which is mine and many others preferred tool.

                          @WrCombs How did it go? Did you get Linux Mint installed?
