--- Comment #13 from Maxim <[email protected]> --- (In reply to comment #6) > Thanks for your counsel Maxim, but absolutely clueless about what you mean > by "run LO installation" and what the procedure is for "uninstall Shell > extensions" -- where, how, in LibreOffice, in Windows? ty. Sorry I was not clear enough. I mean you should run LibreOffice setup (the msi file that you downloaded), choose 'Modify', and uncheck 'Windows Explorer extensions'. The reason for such suggestion is simple: You said that 'ANY attempt to RENAME the copy results in causing Windows Explorer itself to crash!'. LibreOffice can cause Explorer to crash *only* if Explorer loads some LibreOffice modules. So the *only* candidates are Explorer extensions. You also said that 'Uninstaller repeatedly flagged Windows Search Filter Host as preventing uninstall' which proves it (LibreOffice search filter is a part of 'Windows Explorer extensions'). Looks like search filter can't finish to index your file, or it's too slow, thus locking the file. The file can be also locked by thumbnail generation. Also take a look at Bug 68818 and Bug 71216 for a similar bugs, in both cases it's confirmed to caused by Explorer extensions. (BTW The uninstall behavior is also already reported in Bug 69043.) In fact there is a known bug with Explorer extensions which can cause such problem - Bug 56007, which also affects search filter as pointed out in Bug 56035 comment 40. (Bug 68487 might be also related.) A fix for that bug will be included in LibreOffice 4.1.4.
