Because apparently someone did replace the linked file without any notice here and without fixing the tutorial...

While not fixing the tutorial probably wasn't a good thing, staff members do what it takes to enforce the rules they, or members with higher privileges, set. You could have grounds to complain about the rules if they were insane, but in this instance, they're not: both Adriweb and I explained why, using arguments usually well understood and accepted in the calculator communities (not just TI-Planet).

I've been very busy this week, admins know why, or I would have taken the time to take care of this, both the file and the tutorial.
And such very critic tutorial requires to have both time and calm of soul.
I haven't been told the file had been replaced.

Indeed, making the tutorial leave you with an unusable calculator without any prior notice wasn't a nice thing...

@cherrios489
Restart the tutorial at step D with the new file linked by parrotgeek1.
This should repair your calculator.

But that was precisely my point: staff members don't have to notify members when they enforce rules.

Yeah I replaced the file myself Friday evening (or even saturday, I don't really remember) and of course *definitely planned* to let critor know about the tutorial needing an update right after, but I got sidetracked, so he never was aware of it, apparently. So I guess I'm sorry about this (something important came up out of my control and I had to take care of it immediately)

In any case, it was the obvious move since you published the file we wanted to be used (had to rather). Plus, what Lionel said.

That said, the tutorial is fine for people not using CAS on non-CAS, so... Maybe it's the reddit stuff that leads to here that should be updated when they're willing to do such things. And link to elsewhere instead. For what critor newsed about (ndless auto-install), everything is fine, as far as I know.

No need to link elsewhere, I've made a quick fix.
It's just that I need more time for a clean fix, and this week was clearly not the best one to deal with this.
