Re: [libreoffice-users] 4.0.3 64-bit DEB removed my extensions, but Windows version did notI

Hi :)
Errr, the User Profile changed with the 4.0.x.  Under 3.x.x the path was 

blah...blah/3/blah

under 4.0.x it's changed to 

blah...blah/4/blah

So if you are upgrading from 3.x.x to 4.0.x then your Extensions, galleries, backups, templates and 
all the rest might not get picked up by the newer version.  Copy&paste or drag&drop are good 
options to fix it!  It's more about the last version the machine had rather than which platform you 
are running it on.  However it's a fairly unusual problem because most of the time the 4.0.x 
install picks up the old stuff for you.  
Regards from 
Tom :)
