Bug Description
The upgrade window fits within the visible screen size as expected.
However, when you get to the "Do you want to start the upgrade?" screen and click Details at the bottom, the window resizes to fit the additional details, but this causes the buttons to be hidden beneath the bottom of the screen and there is no way to resize the window to allow you to click the buttons, as shown in ss2.png. This effectively getting you permanently stuck as there is no way to exit the window (other than tabbing through the buttons and hoping to hit Enter on the correct one, which some users may not know about).
Clicking Details again to hide the additional information doesn't resize the window, so is not a fix. If the window resized to fit the screen again, this would fix the issue.
