Really strange, but, anyway, did it work with F11?

No, a 64bit version won't run on a 32bit O.S.

If you open "win" folder, you'll find "x86" and "x86_64" subfolders, where
the first is 32bit. For instance have a look here:
https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/5.4.7.2/win/
https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/6.4.6.2/win/
https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/7.0.0.3/win/

On this page you can find system requirements:

So Win7 (if you applied SP1) should be fine even for the last version.
