Okay. I guess that should have been msiexec. It yields the same problem. It requires 422MB on C:

There click on Run. You get an input line with label 'Open'. Enter the text cmd Now you get a command line window. Enter the following texts and finish each line with enter. D: cd Downloads msciexec /a LibreOffice_4.1.5_Win_x86.msi The reaction has a little bit delay.

I think somebody stated that if extracted rather than > installed, the new version would NOT be invoked by double clicking a > document (e.g. pizzalog.ods). It will tell you that the files are to be _extracted_ to a net work drive. There you get the option to choose the destination, in your case drive D. It is correct, that this does not add any registry entries to provide "call by doubleclick". But you can change that later. First you need to get this extraction and then we will help you with the next steps.
