Rainer: localization is English for all. during LibO install I deselected the
french and spanish dictionaries, leaving only english, and I deselected the
English(UK) and English(south Africa) UI languages, leaving only English. My OS
is of course English as well.

I tried opening files from windows explorer and from the open dialog in LibO.
The files are located on a local NTFS volume. The files I first tried were
sitting on my desktop, the others are elsewhere on the same volume. No network
drives involved.

The exact wording of the error message is what I was after when I tried to do a
parallel install of 4.0. Unfortunately, that both removed the 3.6 install and
resulted in a working 4.0 install. Thus, the conclusion that an upgrade works
but a fresh install doesn't. As it has been reported that an uninstall followed
by install works, I must conclude that the uninstall leaves some remnants that
are sufficient to make the 4.0 install work. I know that the uninstall leaves
around a directory with a few files, so I can only imagine what magic might be
left in the registry.

I'm thinking that it will take a VM to efficiently debug this problem. I don't
have the time to do so at the moment, but it would be good if someone who has a
Windows VM that never had LibO installed in it could take a snapshot of said VM
and then try the various install scenarios, each time recording the results and
then rolling back to the snapshot before trying the next variation.
