Hi :) I just install LibreOffice. Then go to Tools - Options - Java or the newer path is Tools - Options - Advanced and make sure the top tick-box is UNticked so that no java is being used anywhere. It lists all the instances of Java on my machine which is handy, because if there are any then i just uninstall them.
If an Extension or anything needs java then a pop-up should appear telling me it can't do whatever. I can then choose whether to try to re-enable java and retry the Extension or wizard or whatever or to find a different way of achieving the result i want. Since i don't have Java on any Windows machine i tend to go with the latter approach. I've not been aware of having Java problems in LibreOffice, or maybe i have just forgotten but i just steer well clear now anyway jic.
