Re: [libreoffice-users] Can't Install LibreOffice 3.5 3.4 etc or OpenOffice on Windows 7

Hi Alex,

    Whenever I cannot properly install any program and now I made it a 
habit, because I was told to do this and it has ALWAYS worked!  But 
first, let's do a little cleanup. Make  sure you're in administrative 
mode. Check which programs are still installed (OpenOffice.org, and/or 
LibreOffice) and run add/remove to remove them. Next look at your 
C:\Program Files subdirectory (C:\Program  Files (x.86) if it's a 64bit 
system.) and delete any OpenOffice.org, or LibreOffice subdirectories.  
Next, look at your C:\users\xxxxx\application data\roaming subdirectory, 
where xxxxx is  the name of your user administrative account. You will 
undoubtedly have OpenOffice.org and/or LibreOffice  subdirectories.  
These subdirecdtories have your profile info, but I'd delete them, 
having your problems. Download CCleaner.  First, delete all the garbage 
under _C_leaner.  Next, analyze the registry.  Delete the registry 
entries  pertaining to OpenOffice.org and LibreOffice.  Also delete any 
CLSD entries.  Reboot and run CCleaner again.  Reboot again.  You're 
still in administrative mode.  Disconnect the Internet.  Shut down any 
anti-virus scanners, anti-spyware scanners, 3rd party firewall 
software.  In fact, I usually run  the task  manager and disengage any 
processes I installed that are running.
Now you are ready to install LibreOffice.  After installation, reboot.  
And during reboot, reconnect the internet.  Do not run LibreOffice until 
after you reboot.  (Now  if you had Linux, you'd miss all this fun stuff!)

    If you still have problems,   another application may be 
interfering.  That's where it starts getting fun.

P.S. The only reason I do not run Linux is that all my business software 
is Windows based.
