Hi! After a kickstart restore (after 'clean up') the file en-GB.kickstart.ini is left behind in the website root. I used the latest version of Kickstart (PRO).

This is correct. Kickstart Pro cannot work when it's called kickstart.php for security reasons. You have to rename it to something else, e.g. something.php. In this case the language INI file it tries to load (and delete afterwards) is en-GB.something.ini. Since your file is called en-GB.kickstart.ini it is not loaded and not deleted.

OK, I did not realize I had to rename the ini file(s) as well ;-) Will dot this next time. Thanks!
