Every time I try to finish the installer, I never get the Clean Up Button. I've tried refreshing, no avail. I have been able to manually delete the installation, kickstart, and backup files to get it to work but I'm not sure why the Clean Up button isn't there. Any advice on the matter would be appreciated. Thank you.

As per the screenshot and as it has been since 20080 when I wrote the very first version of Kickstart you need to first close the current window. This will take you back to Kickstart' window where you can see the Clean Up button.

If you do not understand what I mean please watch https://www.akeeba.com/videos/1212-akeeba-backup/1618-abtc04-restore-site-new-server.html#akeebaVideoTutorialPlayer from time 04:35 to 04:48. Look how there are two browser tabs and the instructor closes the second one where you see the same message you screenshoted in your ticket.
