Hi :)
Sorry, does anyone know if this problem been solved yet or are there any ideas 
about how to fix it?
Regards from
Tom :)


I remember a thread that recommended a Windows uninstaller that cleaned
up the files and registry better than the default MS installed feature.
But I do not remember what the thread was originally about or the name
of the package. My guess is the registry/uninstaller has gotten messed
up.

LO should install/uninstall without problems on Windows. I have not had
any problems on a Windows 7 work installation.

Have you already got, or did you have LibreOffice 3.3.x installed previously?  

Yes, as I have told it, version 3.3.3.

I finally arrange to get 3.3.0 and 3.3.3 installers:
-  3.3.0 refuse to install ("A new version of LibreOffice 3.3 was found. To 
install an older version, the newer version needs to be removed first").
- 3.3.3 installer asks also for the libreoffice33.msi file. Which one I provide, 
I then get an error ("invalid file").

Finally, I can't uninstall, I can't reinstall, I can't downgrade and I can't 
upgrade.

Too bad!

It's weird that it is asking for the libreoffice33.msi, i would have expected it 

to ask for a libreoffice34.msi.  

You can install both or lots of different versions include OpenOffice ones but 
only by following this guide
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Installing_in_parallel

I am not sure how to make sure you have fully removed a program in Windows.  I 
would look in "Add/Remove Programs" in the Control Panel.  ('Start' button - 
then just under "All Programs?)

Hello,

I can't install 3.4.2 on Windows XP because the installer asks for the 
libreoffice33.msi file that is not present on my PC.

Same thing :
- If I try to uninstall.
- With 3.3.3 version.

I'm using 3.3.2 version (French).

Thank you in advance,
Francis
