I haven't seen ANY of the naysayers put together a coherent response to this. Do people actually READ comments and consider them, or is everyone on a one-track-record? - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

The reason we're asking for these keys to be removed is for usability. The bottom line is that if these keys are not removed, then OOo will not be properly integrated on Windows. Users will go to open a document, and they'll get a file browser dialog asking them where soffice.exe went. I urge people to read again the so-called 'proper' method of migrating from one version of OO to another ( which I posted above, and had to repeat on 30 or so computers, multiplied by however many beta versions of OOo I ran ... to many anyway ), which involves manually removing registry keys. People who take the "we didn't do it ... it's not our problem" attitude are missing the point completely. Removing these keys is the only way OOo will work properly on Windows. Users should not have to manually edit the registry to get OOo to work. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Perhaps it is time to consider a way of sanitising the registry when upgrading OOo to avoid all the issues people will be having now with opening Office documents since upgrading from 1.x to 2.0? For those not convinced of the need to address this bug, try the following simple demonstration. 1) Install OOo-1.1.4 on a clean system, using the default options for everything 2) 'Train' Windows Explorer ( right-click and 'open with...', select OOo ) and other apps ( eg Thunderbird ) how to open common Office documents. 3) Uninstall OOo-1.1.4. 4) Install OOo-2.0.1, using the default options for everything. 5) Try to open Office documents from Windows Explorer and Thunderbird. Explorer / Thunderbird try to use the old 1.1.4. They're looking in the registry. We should make sure that the registry contains valid data while installing. I have to manually do the following on 20 or so systems every time I upgrade: 1) Uninstall OOo. 2) Open regedit.exe 3) Search for 'soffice'. 4) Delete all entries found. 5) Search for 'oowriter'. 6) Delete all entries found. 7) Search for 'oocalc'. 8) Delete all entries found. 9) Search for 'ooimpress'. 10) Delete all entries found. 11) Install OOo. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

There are a number of ways that paths to OOo binaries can get into the registry. The installer is just one of them. Users can right-click on a file, and say "Open With ..." and choose the path to an OOo binary. There are most likely others. The problem is that with the path changing with each version, a lot of stale references to uninstalled versions of OOo are left around the place. Clicking on a file will then result in a dialog saying something along the lines that the destination file doesn't exist. When I do an OOo upgrade, after I uninstall OOo, I open regedit, and manually search for all soffice, swriter, and scalc references and delete them. This is the only way to get a fully functioning system. So ... not only should the installer have the option of removing registry entries that a previous installer may have set, but also of removing *ALL* registry settings that have anything to do with OOo - whether the installer put them there or not. Without this, users must be adept at registry hacking to make OOo work properly, especially when clicking on documents from Windows Explorer. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
