Suggestion for clarity

Hi,

Just a suggestion for hopefully improving clarity on the Groupy 2 Beta General Configuration Page (see illustrations below).

I'm finding the wording on the configuration option
     "Turn off Groupy for this account"
a bit confusing.

"Whilst we love Groupy and we hope you do too, you can disable Groupy in this account by enabling this."[On/Off switch]

I think it's confusing to say you can disable something by enabling something else; and the thing you have to "enable", the On/Off switch, isn't labelled "Disable / Enable", but "On / Off", instead.

So currently, the option's heading talks about "disable", followed by a description that says "turn off" instead, with a switch that turns Groupy off while it's set to on, and vice versa. It's all a bit disjointed.

Also, while I think "this account" means my Stardock account, it could be interpreted as meaning, for example, the currently active Windows User account.

I wonder if it might be clearer to re-word this setting as follows, which is what I think it's trying to say, and reconfigure (reverse) the switch's effect accordingly:

Turn Groupy on or off within this Stardock account
      Keep Groupy turned on or off (within this Stardock account) by setting this switch.      [On/Off]

-------------------------------------

Here are the relevant illustrations.

That option appears at the foot of this page:

Hello,

We appreciate your input. However, I believe, it is best to report your finding in Groupy Beta feedback thread: https://forums.stardock.com/518687/.

Thank you.
