Unfortunately, after deleting the C:\Users\<user name>\AppData\Roaming\libreoffice\3\user the problem still exists.
For some unknown reason, LO3.4.3 still thinks there is a version of the program still installed on my desktop - even though there isn't. I also noticed that apparently when I previously uninstalled LO3.4.3 - it did not do it properly since the program is still listed in my Control Panel. However, if I try to uninstall via the Control Panel, it tells me LibreOffice34.msi does not exist - therefore will not uninstall the program.
