Installing 1.4 beta2 "base" over 1.3.1. Here's a screenshot of the language options, and one of the system settings shown during installation.
Similar to the above post: An extraneous MS-FrontPage folder '_vti_cnf' appears when selecting the pulldown menu, via . ..or.. /admin/editprefs.php
Reproducable in versions 1.2.3 and 1.4.1.

This could only be there if it was in the admin/theme/ folder so if you installed this from your unpacked cmsms folder on your comp. go there and look if there is this folder in it, if not did you already have an admin/theme in your server before uploading cmsms be cause if it finds folders of the same name and structure it will just use them and not overwrite any files etc. unless it has one of the same name and you tell it to while uploading...
I have almost ever ver. of CMSMS from march of 2006 and not one of them has a file or folder in them with that name anywhere in them...

Yes ... in /admin/themes, there originally was:
. default folder
. NCleanGrey folder
. index.html
... with FrontPage Server Extensions later creating:
. _vti_cnf folder
These _vti_* folders are very prevalent on servers running with archaic (sometimes still necessary) FrontPage Server Extensions. So much so, that many call them 'garbage folders'.
Is there a list of CMSMS folders that can, and cannot, contain sub-folders -- not created by CMSMS or otherwise? thanks

Similar results seen again after fresh install of CMSMS 1.4.1, on another system (no FP extensions). At Extensions » TinyMCE WYSIWYG
TO REPRODUCE:
Go to --> /admin/moduleinterface.php?module=TinyMCE
Click on --> Settings
Select --> Skin:[pulldown]
Notice --> 'index.html ' is offered as a skin selection.
Capture attached.

I've installed on all kinds of serve configurations and never seen this...
Maybe * Server Api: cgi-fcgi...
