I just installed OO-2.2.1 and used OO for 2+ years with regular updates as each release was declared stable. It's a fantastic product and as a semi-retired consultant, it has allowed me to replace all three of the other major Office Suites I previously needed to maintain for compatibility with various different client environments. I have been an "OO" member & newsletter subscriber from it's first installation on my system and continue recommending to everyone I know - personal & professional. *My problem is a small one* - multiple directories & files seem to have been leftover since my initial installs and subsequent updates. For reference, a screen shot of OO directories is included with their associated "modified dates" along with an attached file copy for your convenience. *My Request:* I am hesitant to execute "normal" Uninstalls and/or File deletes and hope you may have an "OO Software Cleanup" utility or alternately, could you identify the directories, files which I can safely remove & recommended process. Thank you for your attention and service.

I encountered the same problem when I tried to upgrade OO, the installation was going to create a new directory. My solution is to always uninstall the old one before upgrading to the newer version. I don't like it, so sometimes I just keep using an stable version for a long time and ignore those minor updates. For your problem, I think maybe you can try to uninstall all the versions in your PC via control panel and delete all left-overs by hand. Then make a clean installation of the latest version. Since each version occupies a different directory, uninstalling one version probably will not greatly disturb others versions, but it's my guess only. Best regards. -- WANG, Xiaoyun Shanghai, China
