 For which reasons, I would put it thusly: 
  
"Widget Manager is a local application which must be installed on your system; it cannot be run as a remote application. Therefore, you may check to see if it is already installed by ... If it is, proceed with the next chapter. If not, continue with the next section: "Installing Widget Manager" 
  
In that fashion, we would at least reduce the mumbling in the Peanut Gallery as to our sense or sanity.

"WidgetManager must be installed on your system before you can 
work with it." 
  
Um... except for rewording the first sentence a bit, I actually 
would have a first paragraph like that one you quote. 
My reasons are: 
  
There are two separate bits of information to convey, and 
they must be conveyed to someone who may not have English 
as a first language... or to someone who is translating.
