Bug ID: 100331
Summary: Upgrade process crashes and destroys even restore
point
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 5.0.6.2 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Installation
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
The upgrade to 5.0.6 claims that it has insufficient rights and offers to abort
installation. This is nonsense, because I start the upgrade from my
administrator account. Retry gets me into the same situation, so the only thing
I can do is Abort. After this, LibreOffice no longer works.
Because this had already happened with one of the last upgrades of LibreOffice
4, I always take the precaution of logging in with administrator rights, and
make a restore point before starting the upgrade. This time, however, this did
not help: after restoring, LibreOffice still didn't work. I needed to reinstall
5.0.5.
In conclusion, the 5.0.6 upgrade is not only useless (can't be installed), it
is also dangerous, because of the extended damage it causes not only to the
installed program, but also to the restore information of Windows 10.
In my opinion this is a deep rooted bug in your upgrade software: it already
happened once in one of the last upgrades of version 4. At the time I had
another computer and Windows 8.1. So this is not something caused by a
situation on my present computer.
