Thanks Cliff.  Has anyone here run into a problem installing LO 3.3.1
over OO 3.3.0 on a Windows system?  If so, would you care to mention
what the problem/solution was?

Thanks


No problem here. I do have OOo 3.3.0 (either final or one of the last RCs) and have installed LibreOffice 3.0 without any problems. I upgraded one to LO 3.3.1 without any problems too. All this on two Windows 7 64-bit systems and on one Windows XP system. QuickStart is off on all machines and had been throughout all installation, and I think the key point.

One problematic aspect, at least on Windows, is that OpenOffice turns on QuickStart by default. So the unsuspecting user may try to install LibreOffice on a machine that has QuickStart on, and then run into issues.

Until LibreOffice uses different application names for all its internal modules (it it ever happens), would it be possible to modify the installer so that it either:
– stops all versions of QuickStart (LO and OOo) before installation,
– puts a warning message asking the user to stop QuickStart before proceeding?

Regards,
