Set Installer’s mode is to Offline to Install Older Releases of Spread .NET with WPF

Background:

When installing components using the Spread .NET Installer to install components from a version older than our most up-to-date release, it must be in Offline Mode to select the older releases components.

Customers tend to reach out with the inquiry:

I am trying to install v12 but after downloading and opening the Spread .NET Installer I only see the latest releases components.

This typically is solved by simply changing the mode to Offline, see gif at the bottom for another reference
