The Wiki notes on doing the administrative installation are at this link., Along with a link to Florian Reisinger's LibreOffice Server Installation GUI extension for doing parallel administrative installs while avoiding Windows command line and msiexec.exe. Currently for Windows OS's only.
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Installing_in_parallel#Administrativ_Installation: Florian will have to address any issues of a non-versioned default installation folder on his installer extension. But should not be much of a problem.

You'd still have to do msiexec.exe /A administrative installation each of which registers its own LibreOffice user profile and minimal Windows registry entries. So, you can have one "full" installation, and multiple functional but not fully integrated /Administrative installations. Just as it has been.

Just a question: How will this change affect installing multiple versions of LibreOffice? --Dan -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
