Hi :)
I have it on for my colleagues to make LO start-up just that bit faster. They pick on any
slightest thing as "a blocker" and slower start-up drives them up the wall. They really have no
clue about adding Extensions and haven't used LO enough to grumble about any 'missing'
functionality. if they did i would add the appropriate Extension for them. I already do the
updates for them anyway.
Admittedly i am not in a perfect position and it's probably not a good idea to copy me. On my own
logins i avoid the quick-starter because there is plenty else to get on with while waiting for
something to open.
Regards from
Tom :)

Yes if one or both are fully installed (as opposed to /A administrative installs) they will
interfere in subtle ways.
Actions to mitigate:
1) Disable the Quickstarter for both during installation -- the TDF LibreOffice and Apache
OpenOffice versions will conflict--best if both are off. Done from AppWiz.cpl and a modify
installation of both.
I always "disable" the Quickstart option.
In the past, having it active caused issues to updating some of the add on extensions.
2) Also, only one or the other should have the Windows Explorer Integration enabled (it
provides a thumbnail view of ODF documents) in Desktop or Thumbnail views in Windows Explorer
(Desktop and other folder views). Personally I also leave that unchecked when installing.
3) Finally, if using the "release" rather than development builds. The Windows registry will be
written with file associations--the two programs should coexist to open a file type, but only
one can be set as the default for any particular ODF or MS Office format. So keep track of
that.
Good luck.

Hi :)
I think it's the same conflicts as between any 2 versions of LibreOffice or any 2 versions of
AOO or OOo. Basically avoid having both open at the same time. That might mean turning off
the Quickstarter of both of them.

Are there any known conflicts with having LO 4.0.4 and AOO 4.0 installed on the same computer?
In my never-ending, obsessive (and admittedly futile) search for computing perfection, I want
to try both programs to see which better meets my techno-needs.
