That is exactly what I do (wasn't very specific though)... Does this work for you? I have always done this when installing LO on Win 7-64 and Win XP-32, but still have to go back and remove the unwanted dictionaries from the extensions sub-directory.

[libreoffice-users] Removal of unwanted dictionaries
Why oh WHY is it SO DIFFICULT in LO to remove unwanted dictionaries and WHY OH WHY are they all installed by default in the first place? Every time I upgrade, the upgrade re-installs all the unwanted dictionaries that it took me a long time to remove in the old version Come on LO, either make it very easy to remove them or give us the option to not install them during the install process. Can't be THAT hard -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
