Hi :) I don't know if this is any good but it might be worth trying to uninstall LibreOffice with this? http://www.revouninstaller.com/revo_uninstaller_free_download.html Note the advice given by Earl in the post just before this one.
Please can you give us a link to the bug-report you posted (or found) to do with the problem? The release notes for a slightly more recent release http://www.libreoffice.org/download/release-notes/ Are you using Windows 2000? If so can you do the update the release notes ask for?

It's an excellent free replacement and far superior to MS' Add/Remove, IMO. You can download it at the link below and install just like any other app. After clicking the link, be careful to not choose the 30-day free trial of the "Pro" version -- you don't really need it..well, unless you're needing to put your wallet on a diet. :-) Instead, scroll to the bottom of the page and click on the FREE download button. Works great on Win-XP and Vista. If your OS is otherwise, check requirements at the link before downloading.

If I have any problems with friends' computer with Win-7 and LO installs, I will remember your "trick". I do not use Win-7, so this may be a stupid question. So is "Revo Uninstaller" the replacement for add/remove programs in the XP and Vista Control Panel? Or is it some other uninstall program that can be used? Since I never had any real install issues with OOo or LO, except one OOo version where the JRE bombed out every time, so I never had to use an uninstall program to remove OOo or LO on a Windows computer. Actually I had to do that with "beta" and "RC#" version, but that does not count. The error dialogs came up with 3.3.3 on Vista, but they were talking about .NET issues and by saying "OK" or "YES", the install went though fine. Now on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, I sometimes have to do a "purge" for versions, but that is issues on my system, not LibreOffice issues. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: [email protected] 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
