------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Aug 21 03:29:55 +0000 2008 ------- Windows installers, including the ones for OpenOffice 2.x, normally let you select the specific directory that the program gets installed in, typically with a default of something like "C:\Program Files\program name". The OOo 3.0 Beta installer, however, installs the actual program in two subdirecories named "OpenOffice.org 3" and "OpenOffice.org" *under* the specified directory, with the directory defaulting to "C:\Program Files". I don't know why the program is split between two directories like this, but the way the installation works now, it's effectively impossible to install OpenOffice to a specific desired directory, such as "C:\Program Files\OpenOffice.org 3.0 Beta". Also, the way the installer shows "C:\Program Files" as the installation directory is very confusing and makes it quite unclear where exactly the program is actually going to be installed. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
