Hi :)
This sounds like a complete nightmare.  Have you already got OpenOffice 
installed?  It shouldn't be affecting things in this way but does cause some 
general weirdness.  


I don't know why it is happening.  Can you file a bug-report about it?
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport

Did you download LibreOffice from this site
http://www.libreoffice.org/download
If not then please let us know where.  It should be ok but it might be good if 
we can check.  


If you try reinstalling LibreOffice 3.3.3 then does the first screen give you a 
choice of "Repair, Modify or Reinstall"?  Any of those options should help get 
the .msi thing back in but to be honest i am just hoping that someone more 
skilled & knowledgeable, such as Cor, might be able to help with this question. 
 


There is an OpenOffice forum that is worth posting in and there might already 
be 
a thread that gives a good answer in those forums.

Apols and regards from
Tom :)

Yes, as I have told it, version 3.3.3.

I finally arrange to get 3.3.0 and 3.3.3 installers:
-  3.3.0 refuse to install ("A new version of LibreOffice 3.3 was found. To 
install an older version, the newer version needs to be removed first").
- 3.3.3 installer asks also for the libreoffice33.msi file. Which one I 
provide, 
I then get an error ("invalid file").

Finally, I can't uninstall, I can't reinstall, I can't downgrade and I can't 
upgrade.

Too bad!
Francis
