Just happened with 21.04 (on a pi4), albeit with a minor variation: this time, the suggestion was "change the home directory of user irc?" (the pi was a server install originally, with the desktop packages added later).
When I clicked "Help" it resized the window to fill the desktop, and I can JUST see what I'm guessing is the top of a "Close" button at the very bottom of the screen.

Once again, the window CANNOT be moved, and CANNOT be resized vertically (although it CAN be resized horizontally). IDK what toolkit the installer is using and how it manages to apparently default to being this broken, but the fix is the same as it was 18 months ago: if the layout is going to keep breaking like this - and empirically, it obviously is - then we need to stop disabling basic functionality like resize so the user can at least work around it!

Cheers.
