it of course works locally here.. and I cloned it on a windows 2012 r2 and it worked there... humm... the usual message is "The _system_ cannot find the file specified" is it that that you are seeing: http://www.drivethelife.com/windows-drivers/how-to-fix-the-system-cannot-find-the-file-specified.html ? if so check for permission... and possibly: start a console, cd to where soffice.exe is and run soffice.exe there > > (*) instdir/program/soffice.bin reports "The application failed to > start because sal3.dll was not found...".

I was concerned about something like that, hence the test run... I am not a windows user.. I have no ideas about what things should look like, and very little idea how to debug that things, beyond what google says. I just worked based on the hypothesis that instdir was runnable and transportable...
