- The Help button is located in the lower left of the window and the Exit, Back, and Next buttons are located in the lower right.
- If you position the cursor over the ball icon in the progress indicator in the upper right corner of the window, a tool tip appears indicating the approximate time the current step in the operation requires. The estimates shown are the longest time it should take for the step to complete. When the operation is in progress, the icon color ranges from blue (fastest) to red (slowest), depending on how long the step is expected to take.
When PUT is working, the icon spins to show progress.
