Wwise installer instructions in the documentation could use some clarification

So I ran into a problem when following the instructions for installing Wwise from the Audiokinetic launcher, and I believe a little clarification could help others like me not run into this problem. I should add that this is my first time doing mod development, so I am being extremely particular about following the precise wording of the instructions, since it was made to sound extremely important to do so, but when I got to the Wwise installer, the dropdowns mentioned in the documentation had some flyout messages that covered them, which made me think they weren't present. Adding either a picture of the installer to show where the dropdowns would appear, or adding a line that if this is your first time using Wwise, there will be alerts that appear on top of the dropdowns and may need to be closed to continue could help.

in the past we have avoided too many wwise screenshots because they often decide it's time for a New Modern Refresh ✨ and totally change up the UI I think they have changed it 4 times since we wrote the wwise docs, possibly more we could take an updated recording of clicking through the UI, would that be beneficial?

I'm sure it would, even just calling out that the dropdowns are located at the bottom and there may or may not be notifications that cover them would have helped me, I just didn't want to click off of a notification that I might need later until I saw the edge of a dropdown peaking out from under the message box. I totally understand them changing the UI constantly would probably cause more problems than it solves!
