Are .bin and .meta.json log files created on a winblows install?

I checked the COM port in winblows and it is correct (COM1) I'm using this laptop as it has a built in serial port to eliminate any adapter issues.

Testing is what I'm here for, so I grabbed one my other laptops that's loaded with Debian and attempted a install of EMStudio, but failed at that also, I see there is information on installs for poobuntu.... any chance some info on whats needed to build this on Debian.

A step by step of what's happening might be cool too in a sort of console window while loading. MTX does that and I quite like it. Much like Linux booting up without a splash screen.
Checking xyz... OK.
Checking abc... OK.
Requesting version... "blah", OK.
or whatever.

I second that... I have no idea if it's me being a retard (highly likely) or just a software issue.
Also I have noticed that when I open EMStudio the lower and right hand side of app is off the screen.
If I select edit --> settings : the window has to be stretched to show the buttons.
I will try and get some screen shots and upload them shortly.
