Hi :)
I used Nabble to put a star by David S Crampton's answer as he was the one
that suggested the antivirus issue. I put another star by the answer about
using a command-line to check privileges. Does anyone else see those stars?

True. It is just another tool that you can choose to use or not-use. The
choice is there.
The way i look at it is that i could look at one web-page rather than wade
through hundreds of emails. Other people that don't like Nabble seem to like

Bob,
I made the same mistake when I first signed up. I was sending questions to
"users+help". The syntax makes that sound reasonable. After the 3rd try of
getting the same boilerplate "help" message back I found the correct:
"users@global.libreoffice.org". That's what puts you in business!
If I understand the procedure correctly I just post the question to
(libreoffice-users)?

I think the uninstaller does have the option to also uninstall all

There are substantial advantages to the way OpenSource programs user their
