The header appearing during the uninstallation of the windows client customizer in Italian.

When installing/uninstalling the windows client customizer, certain spaces -- header and entry/finish pages -- are too cramped for some languages, particularly Italian and Portuguese (see attachments), where a preceeding text is seemingly overlaid by the following text.

This was observed on Windows 11 using dev build #2670. The phenomenon appears in 4.14 also, although it seems to be more pronounced on the entry/finish pages in that case.

Comment 4 Samuel Mannehed cendio 2023-07-21 10:34:32 CEST 
We don't handle the translations for the client installer ourselves, they come from NSIS. For this reason, it is not as trivial to make these strings shorter.

We want to focus on making a 4.15.0 release happen now and will thus postpone this fix.
