Stuck at “Waiting for 1 Module” in installer

Hi, Im stuck at “Waiting for 1 module” in the Installer. I had a search around but I didn’t find anything that helped with the problem. Im trying to reinstall so I can use XFCE as I don’t like gnome.

Hello,

Looks like you are using a very old ISO.
Grab the latest one Manjaro - XFCE
