### Added
- Intelligent reconfiguration options when PBS client is already installed
- Quick connection-only reconfiguration (server/credentials only)
- Full reconfiguration of all settings
- Reinstall option with reconfiguration

- Step-by-step progress indicators during connection testing
### Changed

### Fixed
