RE: [libreoffice-users] Installer stalls after C++ process

Michael,
 
See if this helps...
 
UAC under Windows 7 can bite you at strange times.  So one of the first things I do on a new 
Windows 7 install is to activate the true Administrator account:
 
launch a command window "Run as Administrator" and enter
 
net user Administrator /Active:yes
 
(note capital A's and single space before slash)
 
then run lusrmgr.msc and set a password for the now active Administrator account.
 
Log off and onto the Administrator account and try your installation there, move you day-to-day 
account out of the Administrators group keeping just the Administrator for installs and sysadmin.
 
Stuart

Hardly, since I only bought the system at lunchtime ;)

Done, there was nothing that looked LO related but I told CC to clean up
anyway, problem persists. o.O
