- user installed extensions seem to me to be a major issue from a school or
coporate view


I do not understand what you mean here.
If the extension issued by the school or is the lock down an issue that 
blocks LO's use in schools?


I have not followed this thread on the email lists, so I may be asking 
question already answered.


Which version if being used?  3.3.3? -- 3.3.4? -- 3.4.1? -- 3.4.2?
It appears that you are dealing with Windows.

As for the Windows placement, I looked into my Windows laptop and cannot 
figure out which folder/file in the ProgramFiles  Libreoffice3 or 
LibreOffice3.4 folders is where the user configuration is being held.  
Hopefully someone out there can tell us where.


For me, I if I have such a problem, I tend to delete the LibreOffice 
folder[s] in the ProgramFiles and/or ProgramData [Vista].  That will get 
rid of all the user and package settings.  Then when you start up LO 
again, you will have to re-enter your info like a fresh install.  At 
that point, I would add one extension at a time and try to avoid which 
one caused the problem - if known.  I have had to do that several times 
for broken extensions that either failed to install properly, or 
caused major issues with LO when I try to use it.

Hi :)
I don't know the path in Windows but for GnuLinuxI keep a copy of the
/home/username/.libreoffice/3/user
to get everything set-up the way i like.  There are ways of setting up a system
so that all apps revert to the settings and layout you set up on the image.

- I've seen other programmes with a config file in the program directory
that overwrites any user settings (including disabling user extensions)

Anything like this for LO?
