--- Comment #10 from V Stuart Foote <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Colin from comment #9) It was an absolutely defensible ESC decision to retain the user profile as LibreOffice\4 for the 5 release, mainly because of issues with handling external extensions recorded in berklydb into the user profile that folks had complained about for the 3.x to 4.x release transition. Decision was no real need to sync the folder/directory name to the release--and so simplified the "continuation" of existing profiles. Although recommendation remains to backup customizations and dump profile for a clean install. =-ref-= ESC minutes 2015-03-15 http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/minutes-of-ESC-call-td4142383.html 2015-04-02 http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Minutes-of-ESC-call-2015-04-02-td4145334.html > Note: it doesn't quite remove all traces of the previous LO4 installation - > somebody forgot to either remove the task bar shortcut from win 10 or edit > it so it points to the new software which, funnily enough, is now found in > LO5. > Should I report that as a bug or was that simply another new and > undocumented feature? No, on Windows if you've pinned a task bar or Start Menu shortcut and then uninstall the program it is your issue to clean them up--same for other "orphaned" desktop shortcuts you might create that aren't under program installer control. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
