V Stuart Foote <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected], | |[email protected] --- Comment #6 from V Stuart Foote <[email protected]> --- The "Object already exists" error message is likely being caused by a Microsoft security update done mid-August. Check system to see if KB2918614 ( http://support2.microsoft.com/kb/2918614 )was installed. See the KB for Windows registry work around. -=For the average LibreOffice users=- Simplest is to perform an uninstall of affected program being updated, LibreOffice in this case, and then do a fresh install. An uninstall/reinstall should not affect your LibreOffice per-user profiles recorded in %APPDATA%. Or the security patch can be reverted--but then it won't do its job of protecting the MS Installer packages and database. -=For the IT types=- The uninstall(s) and reinstall(s) (with KB2918614 in place) generates a SourceHash value in the Windows system registry for each MS installer package during installation--inclusion of that value allows any future MS installer actions for repair or upgrade. Its absence is what is causing the issue (and why the uninstall & reinstall is needed for programs after the KB2918614 security patch is applied). There is a mechanism for whitelisting described in the KB, and it is possible to generate a hash of all preexisting installer packages present on a system. -=Refs=- http://ccmexec.com/2014/09/kb2918614-windows-installer-triggers-uac/ http://happysccm.com/kb2918614-uac-gate/ -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
