Hi,

When installing LibreOffice 3.5RC2 on Windows 7 with LibreOffice 3.4.4 already installed. The installer checks the system before initiating the installation and then complains about a LibreOffice or LibreOffice Quickstart instance running (possibly by another user) and advises to close any LibreOffice 3.4 instances.

However no LibreOffice instances are running at all. And there are no other users on this test system anyway. So the check is doing an incorrect test. Even Sysinternals Process Explorer does not see any LibreOffice or unidentified processes, so I am pretty sure the installer is making the wrong conclusion, or providing me with an incorrect error message.

After uninstalling the LibreOffice 3.4.4, the 3.5RC2 installer does not complain and proceeds with the installation as expected.
