Hi :)
Earl found an excellent tool for this sort of thing i think
"
an excellent free replacement and far superior to MS' Add/Remove,
IMO. You can download it at the link below and install just like any other
app.
After clicking the link, be careful to not choose the 30-day free trial of
the
"Pro" version -- you don't really need it..well, unless you're needing to
put
your wallet on a diet. :-) Instead, scroll to the bottom of the page and
click
on the FREE download button. Works great on Win-XP and Vista. If your OS is
otherwise, check requirements at the link before downloading. HTH!

Does that look likely to help or is it the same thing that has already been
tried?
Regards from
Tom :)

You are correct. However, the Cleanup utility this hyperlink refers to is
no
longer available - and of course, MS support states that its up to the
manufacture of each application to resolve this type of problem.

Previously I had LibreOffice 3.4.3 installed on my computer, but
uninstalled
it when I was not able to get the Synonyms in Write to work the way in
did
in version 3.4.2.
I wanted to go back and re-install version 3.4.2 - but have not been
able
to
locate the installation files.
So I concluded I would have to re-install 3.4.3. However, now when I
try
to
install either version 3.4.3 I get the error "The feature you are
trying
to
use is on a network resource that is unavailable, /click OK to try
again,
or
enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package
"libreoffice34.msi" in the box below.
The box below - does contain the specific path to this file and even if
do
an installation from a different drive/folder - I get the same error.
The error that you are getting isn't specific to LO, see:

If I hit OK - I then get the following error:
The file "the installation drive/folder" is not a valid installation
package
for the product LibreOffice 3.4. Try to find the installation package
"libreoffice34.msi" in a folder from which you can install LibreOffice
3.4.
The file and folder being used is on my "C" drive and this is not
problem
accessing files on the drive or folder.
Note: If I cancel the installation - I get: Error 1714. The older
version
of
libreOffice 3.4 cannot be removed. Contact your technical support
group.
Download 3.4.2 from here:
<
http://download.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/stable/3.4.2/win/x86/
[LibO_3.4.2_Win_x86_install_multi.exe]
<
http://download.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/stable/3.4.2/win/x86/LibO_3.4.2_Win_x86_install_multi.exe
Reinstall (ensure quickstarter is off for OOo), and then uninstall using
the Control Panel.
Because of this problem - I have had to use OpenOffice, but would
prefer
to
use LibreOffice.
Why would I be getting this error and how can it be fixed?
You are getting the error because 3.4.2 didn't get uninstalled properly.
