Don't disconnect your USB keyboard while installing

This will sound strange, but I found whenever I disconnected my USB keyboard the download process would either hang randomly and need to be killed or just plain CTD.  Ever since I stopped doing the disconnects, it's been fine for some hours and many GB.

The reason I disconnect at all is I have a USB keyboard switcher to share my keyboard between the flightsim PC and a laptop.  That disconnects the PC when switching to the laptop.

Yes, it’s not a good idea messing with USB peripherals during install... I connected my flight controllers during install and had a CTD!
