No, I had not. I did not know I had to. 
Well, I ran it, but it asks me if I want privileged separation or not. I
searched a little on internet to know what this is. It seems a good

problems. Does it work well now  and is there a manual or how to in this
context ? If I choose NO, is it dangerous but more simple ?
