these apps.  Due to a stroke 4 years ago and current residual health problems,

You can find and download extensions from www.openoffice.org/extensions/ 
they are all created and maintained

by volunteers.


2.  I’ve noticed with many apps, not just yours, require numerous permissions.  
Some of them, I would be a total idiot to allow.  For example, the ability to 
alter and/or delete files, photos, access to my contacts, ability to send texts 
and emails, etc.  My personal feelings, the photos are irreplaceable due to 
deceased family and friends, children and grandchildren from infant up, travel 
experiences (non-repeatable), etc.  These are my private, personal items and I 
honestly do not trust anyone enough to allow carte blanc of MY PC, MY files, MY 
photos, and again, etc.


All permissions asked is just to install the extensions, as far as I 
know non need access to your personal information.




I sincerely would like to have some apps/extensions to go with my Apache as my 
plan is to utilize you to the extent I am able and avoid Windows/Word.  
Therefore, I request your assistance and attention to the above to hopefully 
enable me to proceed.

I look forward to your responses.

Sharon, there is no cost for using OpenOffice.  Just be sure you obtain
your new copy from www.openoffice.org or www.openoffice.apache.org.  There
are other places that will say it's free but they embed malware and
advertisements.  Other sites even try to sell it.

In my experience OpenOffice only asks permission if you attempt to delete
somethingthen it asks you if you are sure??  It will probably also ask
you if you want to save your work when you close OpenOffice if you have not
already done so.

Hope this answers your questionsenjoy AOO!

No, that's bad advice. Programs should be *installed* using 
administrative rights, of course, but - as with application software 
generally - OpenOffice does not need administrative rights to run. 
And operating your system habitually with administrative rights 
negates the very protection (against malware and so on) that the 
distinction is there to provide.

Carefully follow the instructions in

This is a common problem on Macs

Reopen or Don't Reopen it's windows. When I click on either option nothing
