my guess is he is trying one that was before the 2.4.10 release.

The out put looks like Pre 2.4.10 package. I Had these issues with both options on the pre 2.4.10.

I would like to say I have a fix for you besides downloading the 2.4.10 or better yet the newest one that is out right now. I had the problem and then the next day 2.4.10 was release.
