Research direction

Start in the Keybase GUI flow for the “Enable Keybase in Explorer?” popup and trace the Dokan installation state after cancellation or a crash. Reproduce on Windows 7 if available; done means the “Yes, Enable” button leaves its loading state and the installation state is reset or retried correctly.
