Hi :) Yes. It should be that easy. The only issue is that the 3.6.x branch wont pick-up all the settings and configurations of branch 4.0.x, but that might be advantageous anyway.
Before doing the uninstall-reinstall it might be worth considering a couple of other options 1. Renaming your user-profile often fixes weird and unlikely problems https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/UserProfile branch 4.0.x might not be picking-up the settings and configurations you set for branch 3.x.x but i think you can rename folder 3 to folder 4 to sort that out. 2. Maybe install 3.6.x alongside 4.0.x. I wouldn't advise this as it can get a bit confusing https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Installing_in_parallel 3. Wait a few days and then install the 4.0.3 when it gets released. Typically new branches have added tons of functionality and better compatibility with MS formats but have been a little buggy sometimes until they reach around x.x.3 or x.x.4. That 3rd digit is a little like the "Service Packs" that MS uses for it's stuff except they only do 3 whereas LibreOffice does about 6 during the life-cycle. Many people wouldn't consider installing an MS product until at least Sp1. Prior to the 4.0.x i usually didn't upgrade until around x.x.3. I've been quite happy with the 4.0.x but maybe that was luck or that i didn't use it so much.
