No, _this_ bug is about LO bundled Explorer extensions to view thumbnails
of various documents, which somehow prevents installation of
new LO versions presumably because these Explorer extension files cannot
be overwritten or deleted; naturally on a "fresh" install you won't
have LO Explorer extensions running.
(actually i cannot imagine how there could be a conflict between
Explorer.exe and LO installation without a LO previously installed
on the system, but this is Windows and it's full of mysteries
so what do i know anyway...)
